Diary turned book of the daughter of the famous Lindbergh aviators couple.

First and foremost, the book gives the feeling that it provided relief to the author, to be able to put her thoughts on the paper and make sense out of them. It truly does that and it provides the reader with razor sharp insight into the most intimate parts of life when one is caring for her mother.

It does not shy away from mentioning both good and bad things about the present, past or future situations. If anything, I'll remember how honest this book/diary felt. Many criticize this book (or the author, rather) for putting a lot of negative and family-related stuff for everyone to see. But it's this openness that makes this book so much more valuable.

The writing style is not as natural as her mother's, but it certainly is very pleasant to read. The talent definitely runs in the family.

This book also helped me understand what it feels like not only to care for people with broken mind, but also how to live with them and make their end-of-life bearable for them and everyone around them. For this, the author deserves much respect.

I would highly recommend this book for anyone interested either in the Lindbergh family or in understanding their own thoughts when caring for a person that is partly in the heaven with their mind and partly still on the Earth.
