Customer Reviews

From a cancer survivor

This book was so good it was hard not to just start over from the beginning. I am a cancer patient with an inherited disease just like the character. The book brought so much hope and peace to me. The characters covered every reaction a patient faces from people, good and bad. The spiritual messages were a great comfort. I will definitely be reading it again. It's a good book for all readers, not just those facing cancer.

Heartwarming to the Soul

This story was so involved and heartwarming for me. I could actually find myself being a part of the story. Even though the story is fictional it seemed so real to life. I would recommend this book to everyone. I found the book to be so realistic and the outcome is so true to life. God works through everyone in this Christian reading material, especially for the readers of this book.

Deeply touched

It's been two years since I lost my best friend to cancer. Much like Caye I took care of Jill I took care of my friend. I had to get a little more involved since my friend was parazlyed, could not control her functions and had no medical insurance..I put my life and family on hold just like Caye hoping that they would be there when all was over. This book made me laugh and made me cry, it touched me the way no other ever has, when it was over I wanted more. What happened to Caye, her family, Jill's family, please let there be a followup.Caye says at the end, she mourns, every day. So true...This book is for anyone wanting to laugh cry and began to heal..

Friendship, family, hope and faith

"Garden of Dreams" is one of the loveliest books about women, friendship and family that I've ever had the pleasure of reading. Jill and Caye will stay in your heart long after the last page is turned.

Friendship, love and faith

How do friendship, love and faith carry us through when life throws us a curve we were not expecting. Leslie Gould has written a powerful first novel, telling the story of two best friends, Jill and Caye, and how they deal with the every day issues when illness threatens the very existence of the life they have come to know. What happens when Jill finds out she has cancer? What is the secret she is keeping? How does Caye and her family cope when she devotes so much time to Jill? These are all questions that Ms. Gould answers with real candor. Anyone who values the importance of friendship, love and faith will enjoy this book.
