Gabby: A Story of Courage and Hope by Gabrielle Giffords & Mark Kelly




What I had been wanting to read was a story of Gabby Giffords' physical recovery after her most horrific shooting on January 8, 2011 Tuscaon Arizona by a lone male shooter.  Six were were killed, and Congresswoman Giffords was in critical condition.  However, in place of a story concentrating on the details of her medical journey, the book is a love story. Narrated in most by her husband, Mark Kelly tells of their childhoods, courtship, marriage, and desire to have a baby. The baby was not to be realized, but Mark's two daughters have become loving step-daughters to Gabby.
