The Revised Fundamentals of Caregiving

This is a great book about so many things. It is about tragedy and moving on after tragedy. It is about muscular dystrophy and caring and feelings. It is about first love and reality. It is two stories in one and I was completely engaged. The characters are well developed and I would recommend this to everyone.

In less than 300 pages, The Revised Fundamentals of Caregiving manages to include existential despair, adolescent raunchiness, poignant tenderness and, ultimately, hope through human connection. Not my usual type of book by any means (I tend towards chick lit and women's fiction with happy endings) but I'm glad I read it.
