Many readers speak highly of Still Alice. I had it on my Kindle for a long time but there have been other books I was more curious about. Only when I reached 70% of this book I actually started to appreciate it. To be honest I was a little disappointed with the writing but the story really made me ponder over the degree to which suffering from Alzheimer's affects one's life. Alice's story is both heartbreaking and inspirational. We ought to cherish each day of our existence because at some point we might not recognize ourselves and our beloved ones anymore, which is certainly one of the worst and most devastating things that could happen in our lives. This novel teaches us an important life lesson and I recommend you to read it. I am also looking forward to watching the movie.
