Acerca de esta escucha
Mara Nichols, a successful lawyer, and devoted wife and adoptive mother, has recently been diagnosed with a terminal disease. Scott Coffman, a middle school teacher, has been fostering an eight-year-old boy while the boy’s mother serves a jail sentence. Scott and Mara both have five days left until they must say good-bye to the ones they love the most.
Through their stories, Julie Lawson Timmer explores the individual limits of human endurance, the power of relationships, and that sometimes loving someone means holding on, and sometimes it means letting go.

After exchanging barbs, bickering, baiting, and pushing buttons, Chester hits Lewis with the big ask. Lewis can’t say no to a dying wish.

Crystal, Sammy's 17-year-old sister, is worried by the disappearance but she also sees an opportunity: the Stewart case has echoes of an earlier unsolved disappearance of another boy, one town over.

Reseñas de la Crítica
"A beautifully drawn study of what is at risk when you lose control of your own life. Unique, gripping, and viscerally moving - this impressive debut novel heralds the arrival of an extremely talented writer.” (Jodi Picoult, New York Times best-selling author of Leaving Time)
"Timmer's emotional debut should come with a box of tissues....The characters are so affecting it's tough to make it to day five. An authentic and powerful story." (Kirkus Reviews, starred review)
"Told in the alternating voices of Mara and Scott, Timmer’s debut novel packs a powerful punch. Absorbing, deeply affecting, and ultimately uplifting, it heralds the arrival of an author to watch.” (Library Journal, starred review)

Heartbreakingly beautiful!
This book had me at the first sentence. After reading Lisa Genova's book Inside the O'Briens which deals with Huntingtons disease, I stumbled upon this book by an author I had never heard of. Five Days Left takes you deeper inside the mind and soul of a person with a debilitating disease. The second story at takes place during the book is also very touching. I loved this book and cannot wait until the author writes her next one! I would highly recommend this book!

Heart wrenching and uplifting
The story of two families and what they will endure for love. A heart wrenching story of a women's battle coming to terms with Huntington's disease and her courage decision to end her life on her terms. An uplifting story of a couple that allowed their love to grow to include a difficult child that needed a home. I felt Mara's story was richer than Scott's but touching all the same. An interesting read for anyone that is interested in the "dignity in dying" debate.

Beautifully Written
As someone with a chronic illness, this story hits home. Although what I have in no way compares to Huntington's Disease, I can relate to the desperation that Mara feels throughout the story. I came to really care about her. Scott's story also broke my heart. This was a beautifully written story.

A story that stays with you
I loved this book! Two stories in one, yet connected. The book originally drew me to the female character’s story but as I got into the book I was so drawn into the second story! Loved the characters and you do get a feel for the difficulties they are going through. This story kept my interest and stayed with me long after. Use your credit!!!

Hard to find the words
I loved this book from beginning to end.. I couldn't stop listening! I didn't cry as much as others but once or twice I had to reach for Kleenex.. As a diabetic mother who wants to foster children, I related to the characters. The words were so well written rant I felt like the author was reading my mind! Simply phenomenal, a gem of a find!!
