pickWe are thrilled to announce the #ReadingWomenAward non-fiction shortlist for 2017! Find our reviews on the most recent podcast episode.⠀⠀
One of this year's picks is TELL ME EVERYTHING YOU DON'T REMEMBER by Christine Hyung-Oak Lee. ⠀⠀
“An incredible story about recovery, and hope, and how words have the power to anchor and restore what we‘ve lost.”⠀
pickSo many teary moments during this one. See so many of my husband's struggles, my struggles, and our struggles, boldly on display throughout this memoir. Amazing how experiences can be so similar and yet so different. This is a beautiful book - I encourage everyone to take the time to read it.

Spending #NationalBookLoversDay reading this amazing memoir. A tough read for me as so many things parallel my husband's experiences since his acquired brain injury 8 years ago. I encourage everyone to read this - she does an amazing job of really helping you feel the loneliness & frustration involved in a health condition that people don't 'see'. 'But you look so good!' is something my husband hears all the time. 😩 #ABI #TBI #invisibleinjury
so-soI'm glad for the opportunity to read about Christine Hyung-Oak Lee‘s life as the daughter of immigrants, her health crisis & her recovery. While it‘s inspiring memoir with beautiful passages, I also found it repetitive & felt like I never quite connected with the narrative. I‘ll remember the harrowing events of Lee‘s stroke & her healing process, but the book itself is not one that will stay with me.
pickI really enjoyed and was also scared by this memoir. I heard the author on NPR's Weekend Edition and wanted to read it right away. She writes in an interesting, not always chronological way.
This book is fascinating! I'm only about a third of the way through but it really has my attention. (This is another book I found because of an author interview on NPR)
Ran my first half yesterday, so I'm allowing myself to be lazy and recoup. So Lenore & I are going to stay in bed today & get caught up on some books. #noregrets
Will this be the book that breaks the reading slump camel's back? Seriously guys. This is getting ridiculous. #iambroken
This book came out last month and it is about a woman who had a stroke at age 33 and then has to relearn how to be herself over many many years. It looks amazing! #shepersisted #marchintoreading
pickExcellent memoir. What she went through and coming back. Such a strong woman and yes you can recover after a stroke.
#ICYMI We interviewed @xtinehlee1 about her memoir TELL ME EVERYTHING YOU DON‘T REMEMBER, out now from @eccobooks. You can listen to the interview on iTunes or wherever you get podcasts. #memoir

pick@autumnprivett and I interviewed Christine Hyung-Oak Lee about her new memoir about the stroke she had at 33. I loved her new book and think it's so important to the discussion surrounding long-term illness. The writing is gorgeous and meaningful. I just can't say enough about this book. ❤
