A non-fiction memoir of how Cathrin Bradbury’s life changed dramatically in a single year. Her parents die, her 25 year marriage ends, her old house is falling apart and a new romance ends . Despite all these set backs, good things do happen and Cathrin moves on with her life . I am not a reader of non-fiction but I really enjoyed this book
Thanks to Netgalley for an ARC in exchange for my honest review

Truly a member of the sandwich generation, Cathrin Bradbury offers a realistic look at the pressures of those dealing with their children as well as aging parents. Add to that a failed marriage, her propensity to lose things (!), this relatable story is the perfect read for these times.

This was a beautiful, honest read. The reader is along for the journey, happy and sad. The highs and lows, unblemished and raw.
I am glad I read this.
I voluntarily reviewed an advance reader copy of this book.
