    Love the extra chapter!

    Wow! I loved the extra chapter, it added so much extra detail and perspective about the long-term effects on cancer! Such a personal book and it is very beneficial to anyone who has cancer or who knows anyone with cancer!

    The most honest book about cancer that I have read!

    Great book! This book is really easy to read and is broken up into sections that mirror the stages of cancer which is very clever! I know someone who has had cancer, and before reading this book I had no idea the struggles involved in just reaching out to your mates for a hand! After reading this book I can confidently say that I am a much better friend now! I think everyone that has had cancer or knows someone going through cancer or remission should read this book!

    Such a good book I finished it in less than three hours!

    I was apprehensive reading this book, as there are many cancer books out there that promote fad diets and unscientific ways to go into remission. Having seen a few people close to my heart suffer with cancer, I found these methods disrespectful in the way that it undermines how much my friends suffered after being diagnosed - mentally and physically. However, this book was refreshing as it didn't undermine the perils that come with cancer, but rather it explained methods on how to cope with the daily struggles that come with being diagnosed with cancer or watching a loved one be diagnosed with cancer. This book equipped me with the 'secrets' to deal with all the stages of cancer better, and I would definitely recommend this book to everyone.

    Easy to read :)

    One thing about this book is that it is so easy to read! I felt as though it was Elizabeth having a conversation with me! When you see a book on cancer, you automatically assume it'll be packed with scientific terminology that is hard to understand, but this book was super easy to get through and understand! I really like that there were interviews with other cancer survivors in this book. It gave more depth to what she was saying and the 'secrets' that work!

    This book stuck with me

    Great work Elizabeth! This book promotes a strong, positive and resilient mindset that can get you through anything! This book encourages putting yourself first and investing in surrounding yourself with positive and supportive people. I really admire Elizabeth for putting so much importance on mental health in this book! Her concept that people are either heaters or drainers really struck a chord with me, and I could instantly identify the drainers in my life! Even though I have never experienced cancer, this book has taught me a mindset that has made me stronger.
