I liked
Left Neglected because even though it dealt with a career woman and super mom, Sarah, who suffered brain damage, it was funny because of her sense of humor. The way the book is written makes it very interesting because it is told from Sarah’s perspective. I enjoyed reading about the mother-daughter relationship and how Sarah understood her son's attention deficit better after her accident. The ending was very good and I am glad I read this book!
Until I read this book, I never knew that someone could not know their left side existed. Reading this book was a good way to learn about Left Neglect. The author has a PhD in neuroscience and talked to people who actually had Left Neglect. This is an interesting story about how a person’s whole life can change in an instant. The lesson is not to talk on your cell phone while driving! I recommend this one too!

Put this book on your MUST READ list--it's the best book I've read so far this year!
Left Neglected by Lisa Genova is a wonderful read! Sarah has a husband, three young children and a very high prestigious job. There are just not enough hours in the day for her until her car accident. The brain damage she suffered from the accident makes life as she knew it not there anymore. How she and her family copes is the basis for this book.
I really enjoyed
Left Neglected from page one! The writing and humor makes it hard to put down. It’s very funny and thought provoking with a wonderful ending. In short, please read this book! Here's my
Tuesday Teaser from it.
