The Book of Dahlia by Elisa Albert
4.0
I started reading this book while I was on vacation at Disney World. Definitely not a read for the Happiest Place on Earth! Though it is not the type pf book I would have chosen myself (This was part of a Round Robin Reading Group), I was hooked from the start.
The story follows Dahila Finger as she goes from being a lazy couch potato, to a cancer patient who has been told she has an inoperable brain tumor. The book is told in a flashback/present day form so at times the switching back and forth was exhausting.
After finishing it I was glad that I stuck with it because it was such a different type of story for me and definitely took me out of my comfort zone. I do think that the themes from this book will stay with me for a long time and in my life experiences I will probably think back to this book.
