I recently read a wonderful new novel about a woman living with CFS by fellow blogger Nasim Marie Jafry. Her book (her first novel) is called The State of Me, and it begins with a vibrant young college student named Helen. You can read a full review of the book on my book blog.
The author artfully blends information about CFS/ME with an engaging, warm novel about life and love. The book was published in the UK but is available through amazon (there's a link under my review).
Hope you enjoy it as much as I did!
I have had Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) since March 2002. Both of my sons also got ME/CFS at ages 6 and 10. Our younger son fully recovered after 10 years of mild illness. Our older son still has ME/CFS and also has Lyme disease plus two other tick infections. This blog is about how our family lives with chronic illness, with a focus on improving our conditions and enjoying our lives in spite of these challenges.
Thanks for the recommendation! I love reading, and this definitely sounds like something I'd be interested in. I might even recommend it for my book club next time I get to choose.
