Left Neglected by Julie Rosen

This was an excellent book. It was similar to Still Alice in that it told the story of Sarah, a multi-tasking successful business woman who was texting on her phone while driving and had a horrible accident that gave her TBI in that she could not "see" her left side even though she was not blind.

The inter-dynamics of the family especially the relationship between the mother and Sarah were wonderful. The book showed Sarah as a strong woman as she was trying to cope with her disability as well as the strength of the family.

This is a MUST read.

The Invisible Bridge by Julie Orringer

This is a tale of war-torn lovers, family and survival of the luckiest rather than the fittest. The Invisible Bridge tells the story of a family shattered and remade in history's darkest hour. The book moves from the small Hungarian town of Konyar, to the grand opera houses of Budapest and Paris. It moves from the despair of the Carpathian winter to an unimaginable life in the labor camps. It tells the story of Andras Levi, a Hungarian-Jewish architecture student who arrives in Paris in 1937, from Budapest with a scholarship, a single suitcase, and a mysterious letter that he has promised to deliver. He falls into a complicated relationship with the letter's recipient and becomes privy to a secret that will alter the course of his and his family's history.

It's a wonderful book. And I'm proud to say that I'm going to review it for the Sisterhood Book club.
