This book is a journey that most won't want to take. A journey of a woman who doesn't have much time left to live life. So that is exactly what she is doing... living. Living before she can no longer live.

This book is sweet and sad. I want to say it is all sad (in some ways it is) but really it's a sweet story too. It's a story about this wonderful woman with an infectious love for life. Living life to the fullest really has meaning with Bright Side.

You will cry. You will cry tears of sadness for every character in this story. It is definitely not a light and fluffy story. There are no unicorns and rainbows at the end of this book. It's sad. It's heart breaking. Your heart will hurt. You will weep for the characters in this story.

This is a very deep and profound story. A story everyone should read. Not just because it's a great story, but because I think many could learn a better meaning to life. We all live in our own bubbles. We take life for granted. Nothing in life, including life, should be taken for granted.

The only reason I finished this book was because I knew there was a sad ending. I really wanted to like it, but couldn’t connect with the characters. It was way too long in my opinion, and had too many secondary characters. Half way through I thought about no finishing it, but decided to stick it out. I will say the ending is the best part of the book.

Predictable from early on, still a tearjerker at the end though

emotional inspiring reflective sad medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

Enjoyable but just a little too far-fetched for me. The writing (dude x10000) started to get pretty irritating as well.
