This book shocked me at every turn and Britney is so strong. The way everyone has treated here is chronicled here and it's maddening and sad. I can only say that I hope that Brit finds peace, joy and the love she deserves.

This is a beautifully written book with true sadness, heart and inspiration. I thought I knew where the book was going but it was always a surprise - it tackles loss in the most genunie and truthful way. I learned a lot from Mark and his story, recommended reading for sure.
