Still Alice

Hey butterflies!

Wow! Three in two days! This won't happen again until the week of Thanksgiving when I'll be reading Percy Jackson, so enjoy.

Alright, so I finished a book called Still Alice by Lisa Genova. It's about a well known Harvard professor named Alice Howland getting diagnosed with early onset Alzheimer's disease and the degeneration of her condition as the year goes on. It was quite sad though I didn't cry for once, which is quite shocking. The fact that she couldn't recognize her family was heartbreaking and how she couldn't remember what she liked and didn't like.

It wasn't my normal choice of book, but my teacher recommended it to me so I thought, what the hey. It's at the library, pick it up. It wasn't like my favorite, but I liked it. It was a good book. I've already decided I can't watch the movie because she doesn't even work at Harvard. I hate when they do that. Was it so hard to choose the correct setting? Also, Kristen Stuart. . . yeah no.

7/10
