Goodreads Summary: "Twelve-year-old Abby North's first hint that something is really wrong with her dad is how long it's taking him to recover from what she thought was routine surgery. Soon, the thing she calls "It" has a real name: cancer. Before, her biggest concerns were her annoying brother, the crush unaware of her existence, and her changing feelings for her best friend, Spence, the boy across the street. Now, her mother cries in the shower, her father is exhausted, and nothing is normal anymore. Amy Ackley's impressive debut is wrenching, heartbreaking, and utterly true."

ALL I CAN SAY IS WOW! READ THIS BOOK! GO READ IT NOW!!!
This book was NOTHING SHORT OF AMAZING!
From the very first page I was absoloutely HOOKED!
The storyline is commonly used, yes, BUT, it was written in such a interesting, heart breaking, tear jerking, wonderful way, that you can't help but look at it in a different light.
Wow...
From page one..... I loved it.
The writing is so well done, and although it is a hefty book, it is such a fast read. The plotline goes quite fast, and there is constantly something happening, whether it be tragic or a progression or growth of a character.
What I also liked was that this book took place on a course of about four years. It definitely makes you feel like your on a journey....
Every page of this book is sad.. amazing... interesting... so many emotions run though your head while reading.
DEFINITELY AN AMAZING BOOK!
I cannot explain in words just how good it is... PLEASE just go out and read it! YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED!
