A New Constellation - A Memoir - by Ashley Mae Hoiland

I ordered this memoir because I enjoyed her first book, One Hundred Birds Taught Me to Fly, so much. This is the unfolding story of a young mother's experience of being diagnosed and learning to live with MS. It's a wonderful, vulnerable and deep account of her thoughts and reactions to this shifting of her world. There's her lovely poetic view and appreciation for human kindness. There isn't much about her faith or calling on it at all, which surprised me. I think anyone who is suddenly faced with a life-altering crisis, especially a health one, would relate to this book. It's a quick 86-page read, but probably not one I would read a second time.
