AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

Hospice nurse and TikTok star Hadley Vlahos shares moving stories, life lessons and wisdom from her patients in this heart-warming memoir about how end-of-life care can teach us just as much about how to live as it does about how we die.

We don't often talk about dying, even in the medical field, but death is a universal part of life. An ardent advocate for compassionate end-of-life care, Hadley Vlahos, shows us that the end of our lives can be rich, beautiful and transformative by sharing moving stories about how her patients' final days have changed her life.

Full of insights from real people, from the woman who never once questioned her faith until she was close to death, to the older man seeing visions of his late daughter, to the young patient who laments that she spent too much of her short life worrying about what others thought of her - each story raises vital questions about living, dying and the afterlife, inspiring us to live our lives to the fullest.

Loved it

Wanted to read/listen to this book for a while now. I love watching Hadley’s TikTok’s.
A tear or two at the end of each chapters. But also loved hearing Hadley’s journey into becoming a hospice nurse as her abilities and confidence grew. Well done Hadley, can’t wait to hear more from you.

Beautiful

From one empath nurse to another, just beautiful to read your experiences and feel the words. I hope Hadley follows up with another book in years to come.

The cry I needed

This was really such a brilliant book. I am a 3rd nursing student and palliative care is why I wanted to be a nurse in the first place. This book reminded me of why I am doing this degree and helped me tap into emotions and memories I had pushed to the side while working in aged care as I study. I couldn’t recommend this book more if I tried. Eat the cake x

heartwarming

"The In-Between" by Hadley is a collection of heart-warming stories that delve into the peaceful transitions at the end of life. Through poignant narratives, Hadley offers readers a sense of comfort and warmth while addressing the difficult subject of death and dying.

One of the aspects I particularly enjoyed about this book is the profound sense of peace it conveys in the midst of challenging circumstances. Hadley's storytelling not only sheds light on the beauty found in the in-between moments of life but also provides solace to those grappling with grief and loss.

overall, a touching book that would resonate with anyone navigating the complexities of mourning a loved one.
