What a painful reminder to cherish what and who you have while you do. A further sobering reminder to love and appreciate your mom and all the moms in your life.
I loved the way each section was a story told through someone else's heart, really. How the pain, though a little different, was still there.

I thought this book was fine. It was written well and carefully controlled. The layered emotions are intense and interesting. I think I felt less engaged because it seemed really obvious to me, the whole story. I think it's because I think about my parents a lot and nothing in this felt like a revelation or a surprise. I reached the end and thought, "That was it?" But still. I liked it well enough.

"Please Look After Mom" (an international best seller) touches on universals themes of family, motherhood and self-sacrifice. The language is matter-of-fact and the book is divided into four sections, one for each of the main members of the family, which makes it a quick read, but a read that packs an emotional punch that will leave you introspect about your own family's secrets and sacrifices.
