Why did I rate this book 5 stars? :This book is so quietly amazing, in that the 60 year old mother and wife has learned she had to have surgery to determine if she had cancer or not. Her feelings, her thoughts took me into her mind, and that is a difficult thing for an author to achieve.
Everything she felt was unlike anything I let myself feel when I was in the same situation. That might sound as if I didn't like the book. I loved the book. Her emotions and thoughts and how she and her family reacted were so different from what happened in my life.
It is amazing that this author could succinctly describe such intimate thoughts and fears.
Amazing that he could describe the real happenings in detail, and her unspoken feelings and fears in words that made me understand a different way of accepting things.
The fact that her grown children were all different and reacted differently was amazingly realistic.
We are all different, and we cannot know what anyone else is experiencing. This book made me feel what she felt. The only other things she and I had in common was love of gardening and a similar childhood....
Some reviewers said the book was too wordy, but to me, a book IS words..and words can transport you into someone else's reality.
Women should read this book. I recommend it highly.
Men should read this book . This can happen to anyone.
The problem may be that 'cancer' is a far more frightening word than even 'war'. People turn away from the word in fear and loathing afraid to catch something from those two syllables.
This book is very good. Cancer is terrible, but the book is very good.
That's all I have to say.

Warm Winter Garden edition by Neil Hetzner Joe Szarek Zoe Hetzner Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
THIS BOOK IS WAY TO HEAVY WITH WORDS...IT SEEMS TO GO ON AND ON AND ON. IS A NICE STORY BUT.....
I'm glad I read this book. It is a true glimpse of all the different reactions of the different stages of cancer, or any life threatening disease, both by the victim of the disease and by their loved ones.
Beautifully writter contemporary family story, warm, humane, realistic, detailed characters, a story originating in everyday life, presented in an expert fashion. Great read, a book to be enojoyed and thought about
There were times where the wordiness was too much. Being an oncology nurse I could relate to the emotionalism of Betts cancer battle.
I would give 5 stars except I almost put down the book at the slow start (am not into details of farming or gardening). However, I stuck with it and glad for it. The main character struggles with cancer, and each family member also has his/her own life challenges to struggle with in addition to coping with cancer in the family. Everyone has issues to resolve in life, and having to face our mortality brings forth the urgency of that resolution. All-around well-written story if you don't get bogged down by the first few chapters.
