The Imperfect Art of Caring
By Jessica Ryn
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

er talks about herself. She’s friendly but doesn’t have many real friends. She’s become good at keeping people at a distance ever since she left home at eighteen and never looked back.

But when Violet is forced to return home to care for her estranged mother, Glenys, she quickly finds out that life as a carer isn’t easy. Feeling overwhelmed, she’s forced to turn to the other local carers, including childhood friend, Adam, for help.

Although returning home still feels like a mistake, maybe it will help Violet right some wrongs. After all, she can’t keep running from her past forever, and in learning to look after others, perhaps Violet can start to finally love herself…

I’m becoming a big fan of Jessica Ryn she has a way of writing that hits all the feels. This one didn’t disappoint either, this is a story from the other side especially when my husband is my carer I felt every word of this book on a personal level. Such a joy to read especially when I’ve been on a thriller and horror kick lately. It’s shows the ups and downs of caring for a loved one or helping a complete stranger. Highly recommend.

A stark, realistic look at Alzheimer's
Written as a journal: a year in the life of the main female character. She returns home for a year to help her mother look after her father who has Alzheimer's. He is quite far advanced, but at the beginning he is lucid. As the book progresses, so does his Alzheimer's. It's not just about a child caring for their parent: the main character has split up with her boyfriend and she feels as though she has made a mess of her life. This is her chance to set her life to rights.
This doesn't sugar coat any of the story, and I enjoyed it.

It felt like it took me forever to finish this book, in fact, the last hundred pages or so I just skimmed through because at that point I just wanted to be finished. I almost didn't finish it in fact because I started not caring what happened by the end. The book was very wordy, the author was too detailed and descriptive with basically everything, I didn't really feel that invested in any of the characters and I just kept hoping it would get better but it never did. I'm glad that I tried, but I'm also happy I'm done and I can move on to something else.
