      The late Tippetts (1976–2015), who spent years with stage IV breast cancer, spent the bulk of her final days treasuring the time she had with family and friends. In this departing book, her poetic words live on to remind those who knew this remarkable woman and her work that life is precious. Tippetts’s compiled essays are drawn from her popular blog, Mundane Faithfulness. Readers will find themselves laughing at her take on everyday matters and weeping along with this young mother of four children, who just wants to see them grow up. Tippetts details the painful lows of fighting the disease and how completely undone she was by the grueling process. Whether the reader has cancer, knows someone who does, or simply hungers for a raw autobiography penned by an individual in the trenches, this heartrending text will not disappoint.
