Two Kisses for Maddy

I've been following Matt Logelin's blog for quite some time now.  His wife, Liz, had complications with her pregnancy and was put on bed rest in the hospital.  Their daughter Madeline was born 7 weeks premature (and she's perfectly healthy and thriving now).  27 hours later, Liz died unexpectedly of a pulmonary embolism.  Matt wrote this book about their experience.  As soon as he announced on his blog that he was writing a book I knew I had to buy it.  I pre-ordered, and devoured it in 2 days as soon as I received it.  As always, Matt's writing is both humorous, gut wrenching, and above all, real.  Real human emotions.  Nothing fake, pc, or contrived.  He tells his, Liz, and Maddy's story beautifully.  I'd highly recommend it.
