review 1: I wanted to read this one because I am drawn to anything with cancer, and it was an interesting concept with the best friends and one boy. The cancer and death looming over Isabella. My biggest issue was that Alison should have spoken up in the first place. The cheating gets to me even though this is a unique situation. I know that Alison had the best of intentions, and that she didn't want to say she had feelings for him because of the timing--the day that Izzy told her that she has cancer and its pretty severe. It was an emotional book, and I connected with Alison. She is a little awkward in her own shoes, but she is okay with it. She is smart and works hard and has a dream for her future. She is mostly just the girl next door. She is loyal to Alison and they are... more so good as best friends. Alison has the humor to cheer up Isabella when she's feeling pretty dark. I also liked Alison with her younger sister. They had a bit of a rough relationship at the beginning of the book, but I like how Sam's grandpa Morgan was something that brought them together and gave them something in common again, and avenues to talk to each other. I like Sam pretty well. He is the bad boy image but he is a softie underneath. He is juggling so much and I know that he and Alison had chemistry. It was hard though when Alison asked him to go with Isabella. Bottom Line: Good with a couple issues. Liked the main character and friendship.
review 2: I don't have to think about rating this book.... its a most certainly five stars!!! it was about to girls, Ally and her friend liz. When Ally finds out that Liz has cancer, Ally is shocked and scared. Liz only has a month to live, so Ally is determined to make it the best month of her life! in order to do that Ally might have to give up her secret boyfriend Sam who Liz is crushing on. Hope to see this book on your going to read list!! less
