Many thanks to NetGalley, GP Putnam's Sons, and Clare Mackintosh for the opportunity to read and review her latest novel. I think I have told everyone I know that her novel, I Let You Go, remains one of my all-time favorite books. This one will not disappoint - do not miss reading this book, no matter how difficult the subject matter may be.
An impossible situation - a happily married couple with a two-year-old son who develops brain cancer and has reached the end of treatment possibilities. The story opens in the courtroom where it is up to a judge to choose whether the boy receives only palliative treatment or is allowed to travel to the US for proton beam treatment not available in the UK, because the parents can't come to an agreement. The book veers into the path not taken glimpse into different futures.
Told from the viewpoints of the parents, Max & Pip, as well as from their doctor's, this book will tear at your heart. Reading the author's note, the book is written from the heart. No matter how heartbreaking the subject matter, the book is beautifully written and gives such hope and promise.
An absolute must read!
