A beautiful inspirational and touching memoir about Jason's wife Amy Krouse Rosenthal.Amy was a best selling children's author who wrote and filmmaker who sadly passed away from ovarian cancer three years ago.
She was so thoughtful, loving, and caring in life that it probably came as no surprise when she gave one last gift to her husband. The give of love. The gift of forgiveness. The gift of hope moving forward through her writings in the form of a New York Times Modern Love column, You May Want to Marry My Husband.
What a way to be remembered than to share her love with the world. Her greatest joy was her family.
The author Jason mentioned this 'family support' multiple times and each time I couldn't help but think what a blessing to have such an inner circle as not everyone can be so lucky.
To live a life without toxicity, without hatred, with full support in every endeavor is something most of us could only dream to obtain.
This was one of those e-reads that I came across through a new connection with Bibliotheca that works closely with your local libraries to borrow digital copies for free (library card).
I was looking for a change last night and this was exactly what I needed from the normal fast paced thrillers of doom and gloom.
What a pleasure to see such light, such hope, such love, and such joy in this family especially when the son moved back in with Jason shortly after his own parents passed.
A testament that all is not lost. That parenting doesn't come with instructions. That life is never guaranteed.
Thank you to Bibliotheca for this e-read copy.
