Fantastic book bad rash. This book was so fantastic I developed a rash on my buttox from reading it but continued on reading anyway... Hell I might even read it again... Well worth the rash.

We Are Not Ourselves. Very good story. A reviewer said "her life comes close to a definitive portrait of American social dynamics in the 20th century". I can't think of a better way to describe this book. Characters are all very believable and you will either like them and be empathetic or not. It's a good read.

Good read. Interesting, involved

Got lost in this story. This was an amazing read. I fell in love with the characters and the story albeit a bit sad. I will be keeping a lookout from more from this author.

Stunning novel!!!!!. We Are Not Ourselves is an absolutely fabulous book that charmed me from it's beginning. I had trouble putting it down. I would encourage one to take the time to read it and fall in love with all it's characters. I can't wait for the authors next novel.

Great debut novel. There's a lot of love in this book, and a lot of hard truth. The author captures much of the Alzheimer's family experience (my mother died of it, though later in life, and I've known an early onset victim) and uses it as a lens to focus on the eternal truths of intimate relationships. Not an easy read,but a mesmerizing one. My main criticism is that at the end, the author seems to be as exhausted as we are and a bit over anxious to get the whole thing over with. After all, part of the message is that life goes on. Looking forward to the author's next work.

We are not ourselves. This book was emotionally and intellectually Reverting. It's brilliance is the four step move most of us made......family home , rented starter apartment - owned house with extra income apt and final dream house. Each move is supposed to make you happier. But you learn where you live doesn't change anything important. Nor does money or friends This is a family love story. And it's one of the best I've read in a long time

We are not ourselves. This is a profound book - beautifully written Well worth it

Boring.... The author handles prose well enough, but this is a story about nothing of interest. It is the literary equivalent of ...she woke up and went to the store... Later, she made dinner... The next day she did it again... Mind numbing boredom...

Beautiful writing. Excellent character development. The story was just boring - until it got depressing. I’m surprised I finished it, actually.

Worth the read!. Thank you Net Galley and Simon and Schuster for the opportunity to read this book. I received an e-galley in exchange for an honest review. Tuesday: This one was a rather long one and took me several days to get through it. I will finish my review after I have contemplated my thoughts on this novel. Thursday: I found myself not really liking some of the characters in this book. However, after reading further I did become more involved with them and truly ended up liking the story. It is REALLY long, but I feel as though it wasn't overly so. The story just took that long to tell and to help you get a real feel for the characters.

Outstanding!. This book was wonderful and I could not put it down. The family saga is absorbing and touched me greatly . I was brought to tears a number of times with this sad and sensitive story.

Incredible. I loved reading this book due to the complexities of the characters and where it took place. I look forward to reading more from Mathew Thomas!

So moving!. This book was so fantastic. I read the sample and counted the days, really until the book came out. For many reasons, this book will appeal to many for a variety of reasons. That is impressive in itself. I cannot say enough about this book and it's author, Matthew Thomas.

Nothing Out of the Ordinary. This book was well written and I read the entire book thinking something out of the ordinary was going to happen...and was disappointed. It’s really just the story of a typical middle class family in the greater New York area. Daily life, aspirations and disappointments, family issues, etc. most people I know could write a fictional account of their life that would be funnier, more heartfelt and more exciting to read. I will say that perhaps someone not familiar with a typical American life may find it more interesting.

Phenomenal book. A looooong read for the average reader. But there are some great lessons in this book that just hit closer to home and with much more lasting effect when reading as opposed to movies, etc. this book will teach you to truly value everyday with your loved ones and to always choose empathy over a hard heart

We are not ourselves. Lovely, touching story. Only complaint is that it would have been a better read if the author had used 20 percent fewer words.

we have no idea who we are. Is this author being paid by the word? So boring. Such unbelievable characters. Many sentences orety much go like this: “ I like green no I hate green”. The main character does not know what she is doing. Major money problems , sure…go out and spend huge amounts. The son is absurd. His behavior is not normal. DO NOT BOTHER READING THIS BOOK. Find me a woman who has “tufts” of hair on her feet, lol.
