I enjoyed the first couple of chapters, when Williams-Paisley talks about her start in Hollywood and her relationship with her husband, Brad. She had actually experienced these moments herself and so was qualified to write about them. Much of the book, though, is rightly centered on her mother and yet, Kim wasn't present for many of the experiences recorded; she had heard these stories second-hand. She also didn't seem to know her mother very well, even before she was diagnosed with Primary Progressive Aphasia, so it seemed strange that she was the one to write this book. I realize she has a greater platform with her fame, but I felt that it would have made more sense if her father or her sister, Ashley, had written it instead.
Though I wouldn't recommend this book to just anyone, I did appreciate Kim's honesty and think that it could be comforting to dementia-patient caregivers.
