When Breath Becomes Air by Paul KalanithiMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
This book has been on my To Read list for a bit. It pops up in blogs I read and podcasts I listen to fairly regularly. Plus Atul Gawande wrote a blurb for it.
Paul Kalanithi is wrapping up years of medical training as a neurosurgeon when he is diagnosed with stage four lung cancer. This is his story of living through dying. And was so eloquent. His last paragraph of the book (to his daughter) and his wife's epilogue did me in.
3.5 stars for sure.
