Before I Die. - Emily Ira

I am reading a book called Before I Die by Jenny Downham. I am 3/4 of the way done. And it has been pretty interesting actually. She is already going through her cancer treatment but knowone knows about it. She doesnt go to school anymore and she only has one friend. Her friend tells her what to do and she does it with out asking questions becasue she could die whenever. I think it is good because it tells about real life because it actually can happen to someone. I think she wrote this to show that things like this actually do happen and that they can work through anything if they believe. I think she got motivation because it does happen in life and everyone takes advatange of there life. I like her little brother because he is so energetic and happy all the time. "Lots of people are unhappy, but they don't run away." I think it is important becasue it says never to give up on something.
