this book is a wonderful book. it is by my favorite author. I believe that Lurlene McDaniel is the best author living. If you have not yet read one of her books you should stop what you are reading and start reading one by her. ( )

!!BOOK SPOILERS AHEAD!!

This book really hit home for me. Not because of the leukemia thing, but because the main characters were twins. I am a twin and would be crushed if my twin died.

This book is heart-wrenching and full of spirit. It is well written and full of hope and family. I really enjoyed it and got a good cry from it.

It is because of this book that I made my own time capsule. It actually tells you in the back of the book how to make a time capsule yourself and it really helpful. ( )

Hi! I can’t believe it. What a surprise from Jesse. When he got my e-mail about being accepted by the Washington School of Classical Dance’s summer program, he called to congratulate me! I loved hearing his voice. We’ve been friends forever–could it turn into something more?

I couldn’t believe the news. Melinda is so young! How could she be sick? How did she get leukemia? She’s got to get better. She’s got to.
