Eudora Honeysett is done — with all of it. Having seen first-hand what a prolonged illness can create, the eighty-five-year-old has no intention of leaving things to chance. With one call to a clinic in Switzerland she takes her life into her own hands.
But then ten-year-old Rose arrives in a riot of colour on her doorstep. Now, as precocious Rose takes Eudora on adventures she’d never imagined she reflects on the trying times of her past and soon finds herself wondering — is she ready for death when she’s only just experienced what it’s like to truly live?
{"strong"=>["A heartfelt story of life, death, friendship and family perfect for fans of Gail Honeyman"]}
{"strong"=>["Readers love Eudora!"]}

    Okay. So, this hurts a lot. It’s beautifully written, hence, you can’t put it down till you finish the last chapter. But every single page cuts like this whole story is trying to cut your heart out alive.
    Would I recommend it? Definitely. This explores life and death, and fate, and actually living in such a subtle way – you see the threads – but they aren’t stuffing you. It’s a truly fascinating read.

Quotes

    Eudora is momentarily confused by the word “partner” before remembering that it’s modern parlance for “other half.”
