Review of Amber’sWay

[Lauren Stjohn]

The devotion of Amber's mother during the cancer and the impelling walk to her recovery is inspiring. This review was well written, covering the interaction of mother and daughter. I read the book sample and became engaged in the unusual relationship between Amber and Danny. A wonderful story from struggle through to romance is a welcome genre to the negativity in the world. Well done, reviewer. The book is on my list to read in its entirety.

This sounds like a highly emotional and profound tale. The narration is a portrayal of the heartbreaking circumstances many go through. I personally like a heartfelt story now and then, it somehow ground me and remind me to appreciate a lot of things.

Thanks so much for sharing this review—it really moved me. I’ve always been drawn to stories that highlight the bond between a parent and child, especially when they’re faced with life’s toughest challenges. From the way you described Amber’s Way, it sounds like the kind of book that stays with you long after you finish it. I admire stories that deal with emotional topics like illness and loss in such a genuine, heartfelt way. Amber’s bravery and Jessica’s unwavering love sound incredibly powerful, and I love that the writing is smooth and free of errors—it makes it easier to get completely immersed in the story. I’m definitely adding this to my reading list. I feel like this is one of those books that will make me cry but also leave me with a sense of warmth and hope. Thanks again for such a thoughtful review.

Beyond the cancer part, which is, of course, crucial, I love that this book highlights how meaningful a mother-daughter relationship can be. Thank you for your review.

Great review. A family novel that shows us how death affects the ones closed to the loved one and the adversities they face in a battle to beat cancer.

Striking response to Amber's Way. It sounds incredulous. A young, courageous, cancer-stricken woman with a fierce spirit. The character, Amber, seems to be facing a lot alongside her mother and that resonates with me. Being as close as I am with my mother and having my own medical problems , I can identify with Amber's character and she makes want to read the book.

What an emotional read--one that portrays suffering and fighting for one's life and that of a loved one. What also adds to the story is its beautifully described and developed characters!

Amber's Way, de Gloria Galloway, é um romance jovem-adulto que mergulha profundamente nos temas do amor, da perda e da resiliência diante da adversidade. A história acompanha Jessica Langston, cuja vida sofre uma reviravolta quando seu marido morre na Guerra do Iraque pouco antes do nascimento de sua filha, Amber. Determinada a proporcionar uma infância feliz para Amber, Jessica enfrenta um novo desafio quando, aos quatro anos, sua filha é diagnosticada com neuroblastoma, um tipo agressivo de câncer infantil. Após anos de tratamento e uma remissão esperançosa, o câncer retorna quando Amber tem 13 anos, levando mãe e filha a uma jornada emocional intensa.​
A narrativa é marcada por momentos de ternura e esperança, destacando a força do vínculo entre mãe e filha. A ambientação em Placerville, Califórnia, e a introdução de personagens como um cervo órfão chamado Jane Doe e um jovem músico chamado Nathan adicionam camadas de profundidade e humanidade à história.​
Críticas profissionais, como a da Kirkus Reviews, apontam que, embora o livro seja caloroso e sincero, ele peca por um certo sentimentalismo e pela falta de desenvolvimento robusto dos personagens. A narrativa pode parecer um pouco desconectada emocionalmente em alguns momentos, mas, conforme a história avança, muitos leitores podem se emocionar profundamente .​
Por outro lado, leitores e críticos elogiam a obra por sua capacidade de tocar o coração e inspirar. Comentários destacam que "Amber's Way é uma história comovente sobre o amor entre mãe e filha, escrita com ternura, promessa e esperança" . A autora, sendo ela mesma uma sobrevivente de câncer, traz autenticidade à narrativa, e parte dos lucros do livro é destinada à Children's Neuroblastoma Cancer Foundation, reforçando seu compromisso com a causa .​
Em resumo, "Amber's Way" é uma leitura recomendada para aqueles que buscam uma história emocionalmente envolvente sobre coragem, amor e a luta contra desafios aparentemente insuperáveis.​
