Bloom’s book generated many emotional reactions in our book club, stirring memories of our own families in similar situations. I think this writers unblinking reflections of her beloved husband’s assisted suicide can provide a catharsis to readers everywhere. Beautifully written book.

There were a few moments of the memoir that felt strange, and I think it could have benefitted from one more edit, but overall it was a good book to read if you're curious about these topics.
