This is an honest book, exploring Sylvia's relationships with those closest to her as she tackles the heartbreaking diagnosis of terminal breast cancer..

There are some very beautiful moments in Ley's debut novel, Sylvia is a very likeable character, with a spirit and honesty...especially about her transition into motherhood, that will haunt you long after you close the book...
