I loved this book. This book was told from the patients perspective. Throughout the story you feel and experience the frustration and the heartache of losing the word of an item that you are holding in your hand or the face of one of your children. The author did plenty of research and while this book is fiction it seems to be what some Alzheimer's patients experience. They KNOW when they have forgotten, they KNOW when they can't find thier way down their own hallway. The mind just won't let them retreive the much desired information.

I am definitely going to look at Alzheimer's sufferer's in a different way. I definitely recommend this one.

I liked the book but I don't think it was very true to life. I have an uncle who died from Alzheimer's and an in-law who hasn't had it long and doesn't know he has it and both of them were violent and their thinking was much more disordered early on, which is how we found out about my in-law.

I read this book a few months ago and I still find myself thinking about it. I have a very good friend whose mother has Alzheimers and I recommended that she read this book. I felt it might help her understand what her mother is going through. I absolutely loved this book.

I loved this book. I was a psyc professor at a small college... pretty close to home. I loved the way that it told the story from Alice's point of view. If I was still teaching, I'd want my students to read this!

I am so late gettin gthis posted. Start chatting.
