Every Note Played by Lisa Genova

5.0

As soon as I saw Every Note Played, I knew I had to read it. The author's writing style lends itself perfectly for capturing the heartbreak and devastation involved when dealing with quickly progressing, degenerative diseases like Alzheimer's and ALS. She lets the reader get to know the characters involved slowly and without pulling so hard on our heartstrings that we end up a big sobbing mess and having missed the changes in the individuals and their relationships.

I honestly don't know how this book could have been better. The two narrators also did a fantastic job of bringing the characters to life.

I highly recommend this book, as well as Still Alice.
