Wow. Will Boast has perfectly captured how it feels to be chronically ill. Daphne is a fighter. She is determined to live a life outside her apartment. She tries so hard to keep her emotions under control and to try and be able to work and have friendships and relationships. Her strength and her desperation are all captured perfectly here. I think that the writing style fits in with and enhances the subject matter. Daphne's narrative and thoughts are not going to be flowing continuously. The book is written from her perspective. There are times when she can speak and notice the world around her and there are times when she is fighting to stay conscious. This book made me emotional. I can empathise with Daphne on so many levels. I feel that the book has perfectly captured her struggle. And her fight with her illness.
