A Different Type of Memoir

Memoir has been a new discovery for me over the last year or two. It's just about my favorite genre at this point. The Middle Place is a different type of memoir--it's more a journey to adulthood, yes with the typical memoir-esque obstacle (in this case, cancer--both hers and her father's). Most memoirists show you the pit of despair from which they came and bring you along the journey as they crawl out of it. I like those stories of hope as well, but Kelly Corrigan simply offers perspective, hope, wisdom, and a few laughs as she shares her journey.

I dare you to watch the video on the product information page and NOT buy this book.

Wonderful book - a must read!

I have read lots of memoirs and this is my favorite. Kelley is an amazing writer who makes her reader laugh and cry on the same page! I have 4 young children and no time to read, but a friend sent this to me and I found myself staying up until the wee hours to finish it - I literally couldn't put it down.
Don't hesitate - buy this book - you will not only not be disappointed, you will be delighted by her story and the wonderful way in which she tells it.

Amazing

A young woman unexpectedly finds herself faced with potentially catastrophic family and personal illnesses. Amazingly, this strong, inspiring young mother immediately begins using humor and love of family to creatively cope with a potentially tragic situation. She remains positive and funny throughout.

Such a beautiful & hilarious book.

I have a broken wrist, but loved this book so much that I am compelled to type my first review one-handed! This book is beautiful, insightful, touching and laugh out loud funny. I felt ridiculous reading it in public because I would bust out laughing, which made me look incredibly bizarre; but Ms. Corrigan's writing is so real and so funny that there is no stopping yourself. Give yourself a real treat and read this marvelous book~
