My Glory Was I Had Such Friends

I've read a lot of great books in my lifetime, but it's rare that I read a book that actually changes my life.

This memoir by Amy Silverstein is a must-read for everyone. Whether or not you think you like memoirs, I don't care – put this on your list, right now.

My Glory Was I Had Such Friends is about life, death, love, and friendship. As Amy sits in a hospital bed with a failing donor heart on the other side of the country from her home in New York, nine of her friends sign up for time slots to come and stay with her in California as she waits for a second transplant. Her first transplant was when she was only 26 years old, and now at 50, that donor heart is so diseased, Amy is dying quickly.
