A review by alidottie
Love Anthony by Lisa Genova
4.0
The blurb I read about this book did not make me want to read it--one woman is getting messages from another woman's dead autistic son? At least that's how I understood it. Sounded hoakie and too-psychic for me. I only overcame my doubts because Lisa Genova is the author and her other two books (Still Alice and Left Neglected) are amazing and insightful books. So I took a chance.
It paid off! This isn't better than the first two, but it is a very good book. It gives insights into life with a severely autistic child while also giving you insights into what is going on in the child's mind/world. This book is also about two women facing difficult times in their lives.
