This book is not a cheesy "insprational" book that sounds like a Disney script.It dosent have rainbows and unicorns and happily ever afters.Its honest and raw and moving.Gwen is a heroine that I actually felt I could relate to.She was funny and smart,and she didn't put up with any crap.She didn't sit around whining,waiting for her prince to come and save her.She saved herslf,by writing in her journal and keeping her illness from taking over her life.She was real.
I also loved that this book was set so close to where I lived.I recognized the places and could picture everything in my head perfectly.
This is one of my absolute favorite books.I reccomend it to anyone,anywhere,anytime.If you read it,you wont be sorry.
