  1. Erin has the rare ability to simultaneously be candid, funny, endearing and intelligent while recounting the amazing story of facing her worst nightmare. She tells her story honestly without the slightest affection or the need to evoke pity. I thoroughly enjoyed this read. I was so sad when the pages kept turning and then there were none. I await with baited breath her sophomore endaevor!

  2. It was written with warmth and honesty…

    I would highly recommend it for people who were diagnosed with leukemia or for the ones who weren’t but still don’t know how precious their lives are…

    After I read this book, I really decided to make some severe changes in my life, and I started with being so grateful for every good things I have.

    It should be handed out to the patients at every psycologists’ offices to make the depressed ones feel better.

  3. A memoir about a 23 year old girl who finds out she has cancer while she works at glamour magazine. She learns to soak in life, to love those around her, and distill the important things in life from the vain and insignificant…although she still cares about her weight! She turns her tragedy into good work and action by starting to fund raise for the cancer society and with the help of glamour magazine raises 25,000+ dollars. There is another twist in the story. Completely unrelated her sister gets cancer as well, Hodgkin’s lymphoma. Unlike leukemia, Hodgkin’s lymphoma is curable. Leukemia is not…Erin will either need a bone marrow transplant or take this new medication for the rest of her life. They struggle with issues of mortality, fertility, and love – issues that many of us are not forced to deal with until much later. Interesting, quick read.

  5. This book was written so well that you feel like you were there with her through all of the hardship endured by her and her family. It was very reader friendly. I love that even though there was so much bad news it seemed like everyone in Erin’s life was pulled even closer through their positve attitude and action.

    I recomend this book to anyone and everyone, its incredibley real and insightful.
