Disclaimer: I received this book as a free copy from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. And I never lie about books.

I waffled for a minute on my rating for this one. I had to step away from a bit of anger to see it all clearly. I almost gave it 3 stars...but it really does deserve 4. I liked this character right away and could identify with her, despite her being nearly a decade younger than myself. The whole cancer thing started to make me a little paranoid about my own life, but I think that's just a sign that the writing is good. Another sign? There were multiple times where I had to remind myself that this was not non-fiction. Two things could have made this a 5 star review for me. 1 - Ihe ending was too quick. It felt like one of those times where and author just decides "meh, good enough" and wraps it up. 2 - I can't really spell this one out without making a spoiler, but I'll just leave it as I think a chunk of time was inappropriately left out/glossed over. The book could have been more powerful if it was written in. But...I still liked the book. I LOVED the first half to two-thirds, liked the end.
