About How to Save a Life

Now on audio for the first time! Groundhog Day meets Grey’s Anatomy in this heartfelt novella with a hint of magic from the internationally bestselling author of The Room on Rue Amélie , The Forest of Vanishing Stars , and The Sweetness of Forgetting , in which a woman with only a short time to live discovers she can repeat the same day over and over until her life feels complete. When a pediatric oncology nurse receives a devastating prognosis—she has just weeks left to live—she finds unexpected comfort from a patient. Her young friend shares a life- and death-changing secret: it is possible to live the same day over and over again until she’s experienced a truly full life. Thus begins a heartbreaking and joyful journey of love, friendship, and self-discovery, as the brave nurse only truly learns how to live in the face of death. Kristin Harmel, whose work has been called “immersive and evocative” ( Publishers Weekly ), “absorbing…well-paced and warmhearted” ( Kirkus Reviews ), and “absolutely enthralling” ( Fresh Fiction ), infuses her poignant, uplifting novella with a dash of magic and a hefty dose of heart.
