This book is a must read. The devastation brought on by disease is real and the power of love and care giving is emotionally touching. The author invites you to become part of his family during trying times and inspires you with the courage he and his family show in the face of incredible challenges.

It's nice the author wrote this book to honour his wife. However, I'll have to skip this because I don't read non-fiction.

Astonishing relationship between spouses, because in my opinion to write down memoirs of your own wife requires the ultimate trust and complete openness. To know all about someone, good, bad and doubtful and still love each other the same - simply unbelievable. I admire the author for tribute paid and congratulate on BOTD!

It is a good review, with detailed description of the characters and of the narrative line. After reading the review I will surely add this book to my "reading list".

Beautiful review. It was heartfelt. Congrats on BOTD! From the sample chapters I have read, the memoir is physical evidence of the author's love for his wife.

I enjoy reading memoirs, as there’s so much to learn by reading about the lives of others. I like the topics covered in this memoir. I also like that through Mona’s life, we’re encouraged to face difficulties challenges no matter how uncomfortable they are. This book sounds inspiring, and I would like to check it out.

My husband lost his father to cancer at a young age, and uses humor to cope. I appreciate that this author includes humor, as I know that’s how people carry on after tragedy strikes. This is an excellent and detailed review! Thanks!

Peter Simon Karp offers readers a memoir that is essentially almost a eulogy about Mona, his wife. The book is organized into three logical units. I like that the author included elements of humor in the book.

A nice memoir which is centred on the authors wife's life is nicely presented in the book ""LOGJAM of a Beauteous MIND"" by Peter Simon Karp. An interesting book to read.

I'm not a fan of memoirs, especially when a husband is telling about him late wife. She always seems to have done no wrong. She is a saint.

Peter's dedication to his wife can be seen in the way he expressed himself in the book. Reading the book calls for inner introspection. Great review and Congratulations on BOTD.

This memoir sounds beautiful and wholesome. Presented almost as some form of a eulogy for his wife, Peter pays homage to his wife in one of the most enduring ways possible: literature.
