I read a review of this books on goodreads where it was described as coming under q genre of books called illness narrative. Cory Taylor is an Australian author who has stage four Metastatic Melanoma. Facing her impending death she writes about her family, her experience with her own parents and winds it altogether in this small memoir.
I don'the know why I enjoy these books so much, there is seldom any big aha moments in the books. I think though that I enjoy a good read about families and maybe there is a sense of clarity that comes from that moment when you know that death approaches, although in reality it is coming for us all. 4/5

I don't know that I'd want to know that my death is approaching - other than in general. But you do seem to read a number of this genre.
