    WOW!  JUST WOW!  SHE DOES IT AGAIN!
  

*by S***B on Reviewed in the United States on April 13, 2018*

I have always been an avid reader and very seldom bother to rate a book I have read, as most of them are just so so and not worth my time and energy to write anything about them.  I feel compelled to rate (AND RAVE!) about this book.  I just wish I could give it more than five stars.  Lisa Genova has been my favorite author ever since I came across her first book, "Still Alice".  I have read every other book she has written, and just finished her latest, "Every Note Played".  Not only is Dr. Genova a world famous doctor specializing in diseases and disorders of the brain, she is the best writer I have ever come across in over 60 years of reading.  She does not just describe her characters.  She has the incredible ability to  actually take the reader into the very body, heart, soul and mind of her main characters.  She gives the reader a clear concise look into what daily life is like for someone dealing with a horrific disease, as well as the roller coaster of emotions that the family and loved ones go through.  I cannot recommend this author highly enough. One of my main fears is that some day she will stop writing, and I HOPE HOPE HOPE that never happens.  I look forward to each book, and hope I can continue to do so for years to come.

    Beautiful and Tragic...
  

*by A***E on Reviewed in the United States on March 20, 2018*

Richard Evans hasn’t exactly been the best husband and father.  He sacrificed his wife and daughter for his art.  In their place, the piano became his lover and his child.  There is no room for imperfection and regrets.  Until now.When he first was diagnosed with ALS, he refused to believe that fate could be so cruel.  He’s far too young to lose both his music and his life. Now all he can hope for is that he can finally gain absolution from those he so carelessly cast aside.Karina left her native Poland because she wanted so much more from life than just being a wife and a mother.  She wanted to explore music and find her own path.  But that is exactly what she became when she fell in love with Richard.Her career and aspirations always took a backseat to his and after the birth of their daughter Grace, she completely forgot who she was. Their divorce was a strange mercy, but with a tragic blow from destiny, they are forced to come face to face with the frailties of love and healing power of forgiveness.I thought I knew what I was in for when I started reading Every Note Played, but I never expected how beautifully Lisa Genova could make me ache with only words.With characters that are both flawed and at times, needlessly cruel, she skillfully makes their longing and regret so tangible that I found myself experiencing all of the emotions right along with them.It’s heartbreaking in its honesty about all of the things taken for granted, clinical in its design and desperate in its search for mercy.  And it will open your eyes to the fragile power of love…

    As always, this author excels in her writing about medical calamities - in this case ALS
  

*by S***N on Reviewed in the United States on April 3, 2018*

Brief summary and review, no spoilers.This story is about a world-renowned pianist named Richard Evans who develops ALS in the prime of his career. He had been married to his equally talented pianist wife Karina, but they had divorced years earlier due to Richard’s infidelities and other issues we learn about later on. He and Karina also had a daughter together; a girl named Grace who is currently away at college.Karina was born in Poland but immigrated to the United States and married Richard. Richard had grown up in the United States but had a difficult childhood gaining his father’s approval. Karina is a gifted pianist, but she gave up her dream of being a jazz pianist both to raise their daughter Grace and to accommodate Richard and his career.Early on, we know that Karina and Richard are divorced and that this divorce was acrimonious. At the very start, we meet Richard as he is starting to notice a weakness to his precious fingers, and he is soon diagnosed with ALS.As the story proceeds, we witness Richard’s physical deterioration from this devastating disease. We also see  how he reunites with Karina and his daughter and what insights all three learn during this emotional and tragic time.If you’ve never read Lisa Genova, you’re in for a treat. In each book always tackles some medical calamity and is able to make the reader understand it and feel empathy for its sufferer. Still Alice, which was made into a movie was one of my favorite books that dealt with Alzheimer’s.This is the third book of her’s I’ve read and I have enjoyed them all. Ms. Genova  is a neuroscientist and she is able to combine her  medical knowlege with quality writing - not easy to do.This iis probably one of the best books about ALS I have ever read. As usual and as expected, the author really shines when she gets into the nitty-gritty about the effects of this disease on both the patient and on the family. ALS is truly one of the worst diseases you can get, and when you finish you will understand that.So why 4 stars instead of 5? It’s because the only problem I have with her novels is that as much as she excels with the illness narrations, the rest - dealing with the family issues - just don’t work as well. I’m not sure I bought into those parts as being as three - dimensional  as the ALS portions.Still, her books are always page-turners and I do recommend this.
