Book Review

I told you a little while back that I was going to read "The Middle Place" by Kelly Corrigan. It is about a gal in her mid 30's who has breast cancer at the same time her dad is fighting his third bout of cancer.

It talks about being in the middle between your parents and your kids. And how you swing back and forth between being a parent and being child.

Great development of characters (who are all real people) and candid discussion of feelings and how crazy those feelings and reactions can be.

It is a quick read and well worth the time investment. The relationship between her and her dad is especially inspiring.
