Turn of Mind



Terrific book. This book is told from the perspective of a 64 year old woman suffering from Alzheimer's Disease.  It is a bit of a thriller because she is accused of the murder of a close friend and neighbor.  The story follows her decline.  There were so many moments in this book that left me terrified at the thought of experiencing dementia or a related disease.  For me, it was nice to have this book set in Chicago.  I am familiar with the neighborhood where the main character lives so I had an easy time picturing things.
