I love stories where theres a lot of drama involved. And this story has enough of that. I also really like the idea. I dont think that anyone could write a story like this and write it so realistic when it didnt happen to themselves, but Jodi did and I admire her for that.2. What was it that you did or did not like?What I liked about the book was that not everything was about drama and death and problems, there where also a lot of fun parts, like the completely different story about Campbell and Julia. It fits perfectly in the book but it isnt about Kate and her family.3. Choose one action of the main Character and rationaliseWhen Kate is in the hospital to get her chemo, she starts talking to the boy sitting next to her, his name is Taylor Ambrose and he also has Leukaemia. They started to talk about chemo and how it sucks that they have leukaemia but that life goes on. When Taylor is done with his chemo he asks for Kates phone number and they make plans for the next day.Why you would have done the same.I dont know actually. I dont know if I would be in a lot of pain or if I would even have that much courage, but Kate thought what the hell and just did it, and maybe I would do the same thing but for now Im not sure.Why you would have acted differently and howIf wouldve done it, I wouldve done exactly the same thing. It is a subject that they both relay to and they both have to live with, so why not make life a little better and get a date.The sources I usedhttp//en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jodi_Picoulthttp//www.jodipicoult.com/http//www.fantasticfiction.co.uk/p/jodi-picoult/
