...CANCER VIXEN: A TRUE STORYMARISA ACOCELLA MARCHETTOWhich pair of shoes should you wear to your first chemotherapy session? That's one of the pressing issues dealt with in this funny, eye-opening and moving memoir. Weeks before she's due to (finally!) get married, the 43-year-old cartoonist-fashionista discovers a lump in her breast. Using a lipstick-color palette, Acocella Marchetto keeps the book upbeat.

Fortunately, by senior year in college, some of us begin to realize the foolishness of our ways in grand, brilliant, epiphanies. No matter what you tell the nocturnal vixen, her homely sister, morning, is always there to tear you from her nighttime embrace. You may say that you’re not a “morning person” but she’s there even if you wake up after noon. It’s better...
