Before I Die - Jenny Downham♥

By : Jenny Downham

Summary :

Tessa has just months to live. Fighting back against hospital visits, endless tests, and drugs with excruciating side effects, Tessa compiles a list. It’s her To Do Before I Die list. And number one is Sex. Released from the constraints

of “normal” life, Tessa tastes new experiences to make her feel alive while her failing body struggles to keep up.

Tessa’s feelings, her relationships with her father and brother, her estranged mother, her best friend, and her new boyfriend, are all painfully crystallized in the precious weeks before Tessa’s time finally runs out.

Cheyenne's Opinion :

This book was hilarious.. at first.. Then it broke my heart

This book is about a girl who has leukemia and wants to live life before it's taken away from her. Some people in my book club found it disturbing, but how else would a teenage girl act when her life is dwindling down into nothing? Of coarse she wants to lose her virginity, so she does! It makes me sad the way she does though :(

Her neighbor Adam (whom i would love to marry) is amazing. While he is taking care of his sick mother he has to decide if he wants to let this girl that's on the verge of death into his life. He does♥ And what a beautiful choice it was:) This book will make you cry unless you have no heart at all. That is my warning. Read this book. 10/5 :D
