? UNDER THE LAMPLIGHT-

We All Want Impossible Things and this book makes it okay. Best friends Ash and Edi, who grew up near each other in Manhattan, endure tough moments when Edi is diagnosed with ovarian cancer and Ash goes through a divorce.

After enduring grueling treatments for three years, Edi is given a heartbreaking talk by a hospital social worker, urging her to make the most of her remaining days elsewhere. This pushed Ash to suggest a hospice in western Massachusetts, where she now resides. Initially resistant, Edi and her husband, Jude, eventually agree, finding solace in the decision amid the chaos of Edi's illness.

It sounds like a mature version of The Fault in Our Stars — sans the romance.But if we were to sum it up for you, reviews agree that the story is worth a read, it's about “ death, with humor ” and “ whip-smart, funny, beautifully observed ” story.
