Sounds good. I love a book with real, relatable characters! And especially about family relationships because they are so important to us. May have to check this one out. Thanks for the review!

Sounds like a book about real life. Might be a nice interlude in between all of the fantasy Ive been reading.

This book really looks awesome. It wonderfully captures the incredibly difficult relationship between a child and their aging parent. I know the book was not action packed, which is not my taste at all, but I know I must read this.

Thank you for the informative review. This story sounds interesting and the trials and tribulations that the main characters must face make this an view into the lives of many people today who have aging parents.

Thanks for sharing your official review because it helps me to decide to read again the book. Honestly, I started reading it but stop after a few pages thinking that it's just another ordinary story, thanks again.

Thanks for the good review. This reminds me of helping care for my mother-in-law and father-in-law as their health declined before their deaths and us being pregnant with twins unexpectedly.

This review read like the reviewer was trying to hit a word quota. It is filled with run-on sentences. There are no quotes from the author, which is sad. We never get to hear the author's voice, just the reviewer's.

A hero in the "squeezed middle", i.e. caring for both the older and younger generations, reflecting his struggles into society via a blog. This is clearly an exciting story.
This post was brought to you by the word "specifically".

It is a wonderful book that inspire children to be strong of character and wise of mind. I think all parents need to it as it is really helpful.
