Reading 2012: Mum's List by St John Green

Apr 08, 2012 14:25

Kate Green died, aged 38, from cancer. But before she died, she made a list of things that her husband, Singe, should do with their two boys - Reef, age 5, and Finn, age 4. The result, was Mum's List.

Her husband has now written a book, "Mum's List" - partly about the two years since Kate's death, partly about the life they shared together.

The book is heartbreaking and inspiring, and shows a courage that most people can only dream about. I think I cried pretty much constantly reading this book, but once I started, nothing could have induced me to not see it through to the end.

I will admit to googling to see if I could find out how the family was doing now, but the book is only just released, so pretty much, the book is the full story.

I summary: I totally recommend this book.
