What would you do if you knew you had only 12 months to live? This is the dilemma facing Don, when his doctor tells him he has inoperable cancer and will be dead within a year. Twelve Months by Steven Manchester is a story of what one man decides to do and how he does it. A gentle, meandering and sometimes emotional narrative leads the reader through the ups and downs of knowing you are about to die. While there were moments when I felt the pace could have been picked up a bit, the ending was an emotional bomb that left me thinking about life’s priorities. My rating: 3 stars
