Here is a truth that can't be escaped: for Mia 'Rabbit' Hayes, life is coming to an end . . .
Rabbit Hayes loves her life, ordinary as it is, and the extraordinary people in it.
She loves her spirited daughter, Juliet; her colourful, unruly family; the only man in her big heart, Johnny Faye.
But it turns out the world has other plans for Rabbit, and she's OK with that. Because she has plans for the world too, and only a handful of days left to make them happen.
Here is a truth that won't be forgotten: if you can laugh through life's surprises and find the joy in every moment, you will live a full life.

Ah this book had me laughing one minute and sobbing 😭 the next. I've read it several times and I still laugh and cry. Great read but a little to close to home sometimes as cancer has touched our lives too.
