"I went through this phase where I would just randomly pick out books from the YA section of the school library. (I would still do that butttt I moved to a school that has a library with less options.) While browsing I found this hidden gem. It still looked brand new, so I knew it hadn't been read a lot. I'm SO glad I decided to read this. (I apologize in advance because it's been like 2 years since I read this book.) Even though this book doesn't seem like the informational type, it really taught me a lot about cancer. I would recommend reading this if you're interested. Trust me. It's a really good book. Hope this review helped!"
