RE: Book review: Edith Eger. The choice. The memoirs of a Holocaust survivor

Hi Mary! What a beautiful post. This book definitely caught my attention and I'll make sure to read it. Thanks for the review and recommendation.

Yesterday I saw a movie that got me thinking about the importance of not only acknowledging the darkness within us but embracing it as part of ourselves. It's about love, like you say, and like Edith eventually realized.

I can tell I'm going to cry plenty of times while reading this book. But I think it'll also make me feel hope, and I look forward to that.

Thank you for sharing!

Hello! Thank you a lot for your words and appreciation! I am a sucker for lovestories, I will always have a soft spot for happy endings and for love, in general. It always gives me hope to see couples who succeed in maintaining the love and solve any issues. The lovestory between Bela and Edith is quite a journey in itself, but I enjoyed it all the way. I dream of growing old with someone like that, there is joy in overcoming adversity together and still deeply care about each other.

Yes , crying is natural. I smile even now when I write to you, knowing how much this book touched me.I am more than happy to share it.🤗
