Review:

"Painfully real and utterly heartbreaking, every page will leave you an emotional wreck but, ultimately, this is a wonderfully uplifting novel about mothers and daughters" (Lisa Jewell)

"This book is hugely loving, devastatingly sad, and yet oddly hopeful. It’s suffused with the care and love families can feel for each other when they are facing the worst tragedy. Claire’s fate is irreversible, her disease is terminal. Yet the surprise twist at the end is joyous." (Richard Madeley Richard and Judy Book Club)

"... just stunning ... incredibly beautiful ... the story took me on a journey that was at turns, devastating and then so uplifting.
