The Condition

The Condition by Jennifer Haigh

Good stuff -- at the beginning it was "just a story" to me (though that phrase sort of makes me cringe as I find value in story) but still interesting and good. But at the end it was one of those books that makes me think, "Hey, I'm an okay person, life is good, embrace life, embrace others, be more loving, be more open about your love, it's okay to start over, just keep trying, other people are flawed but good, be good to them, be good to yourself. Life is both short and long, treasure both aspects." Mind, I'm not promising you that it would affect everyone this way.

I'd say more, but Fiona is desperate for a sandwich.
