Between Two Kingdoms: A Memoir of a Life Interrupted by Suleika Jaouad

adventurous challenging dark emotional funny hopeful informative inspiring reflective sad tense slow-paced

5.0

I left only the epilogue to finish today. And then, I cried.  I made it through the whole book without crying…but at the end…wow.  

Suleika’s journey was so hard. Her pain was described in raw, heartbreaking detail.  I saw the tragedy of my dad’s cancer in her story.  I found myself wishing a close friend who battled cancer had been as careful in following her doctor’s advice as Suleika was.  I saw someone who did everything humanly possible to recover.  

I loved reading Part Two, a really different kind of journey.  Scary, but wonderful. She is so brave.
