A review by virginiareads
The Breakdown Lane by Jacquelyn Mitchard

4.0

A book about a family falling apart did not sound promising, but I heard that it was worth a read. And the lead character had MS. I got the audio-book from the library. I thought it was well-written (well-read) as it kept me engaged and listening, and ready for the next disc. There were uncomfortable moments, when I thought she was not very likable. But aren't we all unlikable sometimes? I know I am!

I was able to relate to some things more than others, but that's the way it is with MS. We all find a different path through our illness. I guess that is true for life in general too. Anyone who reads this book will relate to parts of the story. Hopefully not Leo's life though....
