Katherine Center's story about a woman's recovery after a life-altering accident is both upsetting and uplifting at times. On what was set to be the best day of Margaret's life, a tragic accident catapults her life in a totally different direction. Margaret's reactions to her situation are believable. I like that the author doesn't make her character naively optimistic.
The story reads very easily. I read it in two days. It was engaging to the point that I would pick it back up shortly after putting it down. The author weaves the plot together well. I could have done without the romance part of the story, though. I felt it wasn't necessary and was even a bit unrealistic. My biggest complaint is the ending. It wraps up too neatly for my liking. I won't say more than that because I would spoil the plot.
Even though there were some aspects I didn't care for, I still enjoyed reading this book. I read Center's other book, Things You Save in a Fire, and really liked it. I will definitely read more by her in the future.
