the things we keep

[Wendi]

I received an arc of this book and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The main characters, Anna and Luke
seemed to pour out of the pages as well as Eve and Clementine. I feel as if I know them.
My mother told me that my grandmother may have suffered from Alzheimer's but I have no
way of finding out for sure. I never knew my grandmother she passed before I was born. I can't imagine the depth of anguish this disease puts on the person and family members. I wish
Hallmark would make a movie from this book. It is simply wonderful! I will definatly look for
more books to read by Sally Hepworth.

A movie for this story would be wonderful and definitely more books by Sally Hepworth I'm sorry you never got to know your grandmother, Wendi. I hope this story <----beautiful cover, gave you a sense of hope and peace inside for what you weren't able to know about your grandmother. It's definitely a Beautiful story.

Another great book, that's not associated with Alzheimer's, is by Robin Cain .......I hope it's okay to have shared a different book in this group. It's very different, but in the same setting. One I read a long time ago and wish it had more exposure, even for teens. It sends a wonderful message for the younger generation.

"The Things We Keep" is such a special story and I'm so happy and grateful to have had a chance to have read it. Touching, Hopeful through the sadness and wonderful characters. I loved the alternating stories within these pages which, while separate, still mesh together so beautifully.

Wishing you ~*Happy Holidays and Happy reading*~

When my Grandmother passed, i found her journal with a story that she hadnt finished, she had such a loving heart and wonderful spirit, this book reminds me of how she was and i will always recommend to this to anyone in the future. Time is so precious and sacred!
