This book. You get to see Hendrik Groen's world, including his close friends and other people in this care home, through his eyes. His diary provides me with smiles, laughter and sadness. It's very realistic and found myself falling for the book the more I read. I felt myself caring more about Hendrik and his friends.

Hendrik also touches on other important subject matters like euthanasia, Alzheimer's and funding for the elderly. But most importantly, personally, he reminds me how important loyal friendships are and don't be afraid to enjoy and experience life while we still can. 

By the end of the book, I realise that Hendrik Groen has my heart. I hope to remember to reread this book when I get older.
