Still Alice

I really liked this book.  It's written by a neurologist from the perspective of a woman with early-onset Alzheimer's.  I'd have been interested in the topic no matter what, but since a woman in the neighborhood I grew up in had this, it was a little more meaningful.  Anyway, it was a well-written book (although I felt Alice's speech near the end was the author preaching at me) and I really couldn't put it down.

This would be a great book to discuss sometime for a variety of reasons.
