Description

Marry the love of my life.
Become a mother.
Write a book.

Number one was complete. I was well on my way to checking off goals two and three, before a cancer diagnosis derailed my plans.

A story meant to chronicle the journey of impending motherhood with wit, became a brutally honest memoir of living life to the fullest.

Make every breath count.

When finally confronted with the knowledge the cancer is terminal, I search for a way to accomplish all the things I wanted to do within my lifetime... when I don't have a lifetime left.

Every Last Drop is the heartfelt, unflinching, and original story of how when faced with the hardest truth, we finally learn how far we will go to discover who we are before it's too late.

My Review
What an emotional rollercoaster. Every Last Drop is a gripping story about learning you have cancer and that after exhausting every resource realize there is nothing left to do, or is there? It is a heart wrenching story, but worth it.

I received this book free in exchange for my honest opinion.

I highly recommend this book.

What a wonderful, moving , tender book! This book tackles a very emotive subject but in a sensitive, informative manner that really helps the reader understand the complexity of the decisions that are made!
Tess has been diagnosed with a glioblastoma that hasn’t responded to chemotherapy and radiotherapy and the only option left to her now is palliation, however tess still wants to maintain some control and dignity so explores assisted suicide/ end of life act. Together with her husband Kyle sister Ellie and her dad they all embark upon a heartbreaking emotive journey, this could read as depressive and morbid but it is uplifting and heartwarming and shows the power of positivity and family love and ultimately a beautiful death surrounded by loved ones.A real tearjerker of a read that has touched me and will remain with me for a long time.
Thank you so much net galley for this read and introduction to a new author

Oh................my...............goodness, what a book which just held my interest throughout. A heartbreaking read, so beautifully and sensitively written with great detail in what is a very topical story line.

I really felt as though I knew and loved all the characters, Kyle and Tessa and not forgetting Beast, just loved him. There are not many books which bring me to tears but this was definitely one of them.

I can thoroughly recommend this thought provoking read, well done Sarah for writing such an excellent book.

Thank you to Netgalley and Sarah Robinson Books for giving me the opportunity to read this fantastic book.

This is such a beautiful story. It grabbed my attention from the first page and I didn’t want to put it down. I cried many tears reading this novel, and thought a lot about my own life, what I’ve accomplished and what I would want if I was in the main character, Tessa’s situation. This story was beautifully written and I highly recommend it. 5/5 stars.

Tessa is my shero! Cancer is a reality and will affect us in some form or another. This book introduces us to a woman who decides how she will die when diagnosed with terminal cancer. There are many books available to educate us on cancer. This one is different because it takes you on the journey of the patient which explains why she decides to choose the uncommon conclusion to her fight. This story is important because we should all have the right to choose. If faced with the battle of cancer I pray that I can be as strong as Tessa. The strength and courage that she displayed even in her weakest moments would move mountains. Sarah Robinson pinned an amazing story that rewarded me for expanding my reading genre and enthralled me enough to remain neutral so that I could read and enjoy the story without bias or prejudice due to stereotypes or life experiences. I felt every emotion: disappointment, fear, excitement, love, and peace that Tessa and Kyle experienced. Every Last Drop is a must read of a brave woman’s battle with cancer and her decision to control her battle against cancer. This novel will educate you and change your life! #cancersucks
