A review by appalonia
The Leisure Seeker, by Michael Zadoorian

3.0

This book was both funny and poignant. It was about an elderly couple, John who has Alzheimers and Ella who has been diagnosed with cancer and has decided not to seek treatment. Ella decides they need to take a last vacation together, so ignoring the warnings and threats from both doctors and their adult children they pack their things and escape in their "Leisure Seeker" RV. Heading from Michigan to Disneyland in California they struggle through the small daily difficulties that arise from getting older. Although there were many interesting scenes in the book and the characters were very well written, the book dragged a bit from too little plot. I would give this book 3-1/2 stars.
