About book Le Cherche Bonheur (2009)

I'm having a hard time understanding why this particular novel was chosen for the "One book, one community" program for Kitsap County. Their other choices have been excellent but I found this particular novel to be depressing. It also doesn't have the type of writing that might have lifted a story mired in a less than desirable tale. I didn't find it humorous or entertaining and I will give almost anything a pass if it's funny enough. The bad language doesn't add anything as well. Very disappointed. First I would like to thank Will Byrnes for recommending this book to me. I have to say I had a hard time with this book. I didn't want to give it less than 3 stars because I don't want to give the impression this is not a book worth reading or poorly written. It was personal reasons.I work in a nursing home 40 hours a week and deal with hospice and dementia patients every single day (as well as a Grandparent who died of Alzheimer's). Here was my issue with this tale. First off I didn't like John or Ella one bit. But then again giving the author credit there are many seniors who are not the most pleasant people to be around. Getting old seriously does drop peoples filters and pain makes them grouchy. I on the other hand am a very positive and upbeat person and Ella's negative and insulting behavior grated on my nerves. Also Ella's refusal to use the word Alzheimer's annoyed me. Lets call this what it is ok? Yes this was her life to live but the selfishness of what she did and the pain she caused her children cannot be overlooked in my eyes. The horrible danger she also put her husband in was unforgivable to me.I just finished reading this novel 10 minutes ago and wanted to write this review fresh. Without giving any spoilers I have to say it left me angry. Not the way I want to feel at the end of a novel.
