I wish there were more stars to give!

I LOVED this book! It was sad, funny, thought-provoking, educational, the list could go on. You feel like you've known the Corrigan family at some point in your life, they may even mirror your own. At first I was hesitant to read this because just a year and a half ago I lost my father unexpectedly. He too had prostate cancer, then bladder. Unfortunately he never got to fight the fight, but I'm glad Kelly's dad did. I thought I might resent them for it but I cheered them on the entire way! What a wonderful family, I hope they are all still healthy and happy. I would reccomend this book to anyone, a truly fabulous story!

The Best Non Fiction Book of the Decade

This is the best non fiction book I have read forever! I laughed, I cried, I have talked about it, and recommended it to family, friends, and book clubs. It is a book about breast cancer, cancer in parents, being a daughter, a mother, a wife, a sister and becoming an adult. Who can not relate to this wonderfully written story? Kelly addresses life's expectations and realities with humor and love. The book is a gift to all of us.

Words that breed life...

I love the way Kelly Corrigan tells her story. She has a magical way with words and I am hooked. Her words evoke intimacy and friendship along with a sheer admiration for her talent.

Kelly touched my soul

I read this book in less than 24 hours and it usually takes me months to finish a book. Her perspective and spirit are captivating and lovely. Her writing is witty and sentimental without being sappy. She is funny and winning, and her story is remarkably touching. I also know that we would be friends if we lived in the same town. She is familiar and magnetic, and obviously gifted.

Made me laugh and cry!

I saw the author on the Today Show last month..while I was at the gym and could hear no sound on the tv, I read the author's words on the bottom of the screen and had to purchase this book. Read it on outbound and return flights this weekend and needed my kleenex! None of us has any idea how many days we have left, but this author goes through her life with love and dignity and is an inspiration not only to others who face similar life-altering struggles and challenges, but to those of us who want to live a richer, more full life and get the most out of it that we can. I loved this book from the first page to the last and could relate to so much of it. I seldom make time to read books that don't relate to my profession, but this one was worth every minute. It makes you think and feel, and look at life and your relationships with a lot more clarity. Kudos to this wonderful and gifted author for sharing her experiences and life with us..can't wait to hear and read more!
