Book Reviews of Before I Go: A Novel
Book Review: The best book I have read in years.
Summary: 5 Stars
I received an advance review copy of this book one month ago. It was one of a hundred sitting on my desk that I had to sift through in order to write a review. At 2am, I looked at the cover of Before I Go, and decided to pick it up and start this book. At 7am the same morning, I found myself in awe, overwhelmed with emotion and silently thanking the author for penning this story. Let me start by saying I'm not the book's intended target audience I'm a father of three living in a small town in Ohio. My profession is a part-time book reviewer and finally this day, I was proud to write a review. This book is by far the best book I've read since laying my eyes upon the beautifully written The Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold. I found myself instantly drawn to Before I Go with the captivating writing of an incredibly talented author who has the rare knack of immediately grabbing the reader's full attention. As I turned the pages, I was instantly reminded of how my daughters spoke and how my wife would respond back to them. The dialogue was real, the descriptions were amazing and the plot was heartbreaking. It is a wonderful story of a mother and daughter and a teenage girl's first love. If you are a daughter, if you are a mother, a sister, or even a father, I recommend you read this book. It's a story of life, love and the interaction of relationships, all of which celebrate this extraordinary novel. Thank you to this author for allowing me to read this book and reminding me of what is truly important in life.
