There were things here and there that got through to me. There are a few books here and there that have been written that have some of my same mental disorders and they all helped me in their own way. I WISH there were tons more books like this - kids, the elderly, whoever writing their story about whatever disease they might have. I guess I never read his acknowledgment in his book or movie. I'm glad I'm one of the few that picked up the book for what it was about and knew nothing about Ester. If someone inspires you to write a book about them then I'm all for that, but this just seemed weird. Yes, he wrote a great introduction but reading about how he used Ester to write his own book turned me right off. The only thing that turned me off is finding out the stuff about John Green. Well obviously I felt I had to read it right then and I did! I found this book and realized it was about a girl that died of cancer. I have had the hardback forever! I felt like God (yeah, GOD!) sent me back to that shelf for one more go around. I started getting mad and just grabbing a lot of books for mom to sell Monday before we go in the afternoon to get a mold of my pelvis.
I have been trying to read as many as possible before my own fight against cancer begins in a week. I have had this book and hundreds of books on my shelves forever. This book made me cry in places and smile in others.
I have sat here forever trying to figure out what to say.
