Between Two Kingdoms

There is more on my shelf than business advice, and Between Two Kingdoms is one of the books I value most. Suleika Jaouad writes about serious illness and the strange years that come after survival. She shows how hard it can be to lose an old life and discover that normal did not wait where you left it. I like that she does not rush toward a bright lesson or a neat ending. The story is honest about identity, uncertainty, and the slow return to ordinary time. Those are human subjects first, and they make for a remarkable read.
