"Am I the minor here? Are we reading the same book? I wanted to kill myself reading this book. How boring could it be?? I skimmed the entire book just to get to the last chapters! Why was it so unnecessarily long?? Why did I have to waste my time read"

"I hated every single thing about this. From the smallest of details to the “big reveal.”
The first 95% of the book was every single unlikeable character making the absolute dumbest choices and being unable to execute basic communication. For example—i" Read more of this review » |

“Grief, I’d only begun to learn, can be so startling in the morning, it feels like an ambush.”

“There’s an unspoken expectation that we are going to finish treatment and bounce right back. We are tethered to our Chemo Chairs for months and months and then just tossed back into the world like a deer on ice trying to land on our feet.”

“Nobody craves normalcy more than us! If only it were so simple and easy to move forward, tossing a match behind you and burning the whole ugly experience to the ground. Burn the pink tchotchkes while you’re at it.”

“The overcoming adversity tool isn't something you're born with, or would eagerly sign up for, but it was tossed into my lap like a gift. I promised myself I was coming through this experience stronger. I vowed to be unwavering with my dedication to mental and physical health after cancer. I envisioned a life of peace and I was reaching for it.”

They were doing the physical work; the least I could do was the mental olympics.
The unexpected gift of mental fortitude feels like a secret in the breast cancer sisterhood community.
Let’s vow to one another to accept positive energy only, including from our brains to ourselves.”
