Fifty-six chapters of A Week's Worth by Thyme Lewis fictionalised the life of Mac, a former Navy officer now working with FEMA. This book captures the struggle of the protagonist as he tries to reach his ill mother crossing the pandemic world.
The review is interesting and insightful.

From the description, the book sounds quite promising and interesting in many aspects, but the most appealing to me is the reconnection of familiar bounds between parent and child, because I can sympathize with this issue and would like to see that it is possible to rebuild relationships even if desire is one sided. Congrats on BOTD!

Taking care of an elderly parent in recovery can be such a challenge. But Mac certainly has his hands full to overflowing as he faces tremendous adversity, including a pandemic, wildfires, and even murders! I hope he can reconnect and bond with his mother throughout it all. Thank you for the descriptive review.

From the beginning to the end, there are numerous unexpected turns. The amusing exchanges between Mac, our hero, and his quirky mother, who awkwardly gets in the way as Mac learns the specifics of a potential murder, astounded me. Thanks for the review.

Mac, a FEMA worker, and Sadie, his mom, reconnect after two years because Sadie had a heart attack. It’s sad when families have to be apart for various reasons. I hope the mother and son will have a grand time during their week together despite the murders that will get in the way.

Even though Mac and his mom find themselves in complicated circumstances, I am happy with what Mac is trying to do for his mom. I hope all will be well. "A Week's Worth" by Thyme Lewis reminds us to stand and have time with our families even in tough situations. Congratulations BOTD!

While at work, the protagonist Mac learns that his mother is ill. He returns to help her get better. He is also troubled by other instances. I want to know how everything works out. The book's synopsis is excellent. Congrats on winning the BOTD!

It sounds as if Mac has his hands full with his mother not well, a pandemic and a homeless epidemic. Thank you for the great review.

The mother-son bond is always unbreakable. I would really want to dive into the story of Mark and his mom. The presence of mystery in the book makes it even better.
