The Criers Club

A beautiful, poignant story about a group of people who come together when they learn they have a terminal illness, and how they support each other and learn that even in the midst of a death sentence, they can learn to truly live. This one made me cryI loved all of the characters!It's sad, and oftentimes depressing, but definitely worth a read.

This isn't the kind of book I usually read because of the somber subject matter. However it was selected as the book for my book club so I gave it a try. Because I'm a happily ever after kind of person, I wouldn't want to read this again. However, this was a very powerful book that showed how 5 people faced the knowledge they were dying from a terminal illness. They formed a support group and nicknamed themselves the Criers Club. Their journey is what makes up the story told here. It was emotion [...]

Touching story.

Beautiful and heartbreakingThis book is incredibly beautiful and heartbreaking. There was many a time, that I had to stop and wipe away the tears, but there were also times that I laughed out loud. Especially at Millie, in her crass, wisecracking manner. Then there is Adam, Clyde, Justin, Leah and her son Dillon, and George. I feel like these characters are my family. I laughed with them, cried with them, and raged with them as well. This is very well-written and poignant story about what it mea [...]

Beautiful!I, rarely, love a book enough to write a review; however, this book deserves the effort. A poignant tale of friendship and the importance of life. I have experienced a lot of loss and have seen both sides of the coin. Death can be beautiful when the life left was

Intense is an understatement This story made me cry-a lot, and smile-also a lot. It was heart wrenching and heartwarming at the same time. Pretty amazing.

A solid 5 stars !!!Although this was a sad book, it was never depressing. I loved every character and every page! For once, all the reviews were spot on.

What an amazing read! I couldn't put it down. I couldn't stop crying. Definitely one of those books that stick with you. Be sure to have your tissues ready before starting this one!

This is one of those books that you always remember. Also one that should be read by everyone. When we feel down, or in pain or tired and thinking “why me” or “I just can’t” this is the book that you will remember and make you realise you can. Although the story of terminally ill patients (and yes of course there are the sad parts) this is very much about living. Living the moment, the day, the hour. Each character has their own story and their own twist on life and death. How would we [...]
