This sort of book uses leukemia, a terrifyingly real problem that many families must deal with, as a gimmick and completely fails to be anything but wasted paper. Not recommended. Oct 20, Valeria rated it it was amazing. It's a very emotional book i cried atleast three times and its easy to identify with it. This girl goes through so much and still handles to recover from all those thing that are happening to her. The book also shows how much a brother is willing to do for his sister.
Actually, in the end, the brother plays a big roll on her life. He is the one to bring her back to life. I trully recommend this book since it is one of the most beatiful things i've ever read. This is a great book. My friend recommended these books to me and I am happy I read it. May 11, Bailey B rated it it was amazing. This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers.

Her brother's weeding ends up getting canceled because he wants to postpone because of dawn, and Dawn thinks its was because of her. I gave this book 5 stars because it was my favorite one out of the series of the dawn rochelle series.
Jun 13, Robin rated it really liked it. I think I enjoyed this book even more than the last. Lurlene McDaniel's did a beautiful job of writing the scenes between Dawn and Rob, especially towards the end. I really enjoyed reading more of Dawn's story and can't wait to start the next book to see it continue. I did feel like time moved extremely fast in this one, but I understand why. Good characters, great writing, and a lovely story.
Mar 29, Cherokee rated it it was amazing Shelves: dawn. This book written by Lurlene McDaniel is the best im learning alot about leukemia and chemo. The book is very interesting for most people because they have something to relate to but otherwise the book is very good and i love the 1st one called Six months to live if you didnt read it already im telling you that you will cry as you go along.
May 23, Dorel rated it it was amazing. When I read the first book in this series I knew I wanted to read the rest of the books in this series. I felt so sorry for Dawn in this book. McDaniel gives you about Dawn's leukemia. I'm really glad I purchased this book. Feb 15, Kathy Mescher rated it it was amazing. I have been a fan of Lurlene McDaniel since as far back as I can remember. Even though the book's audience is more geared towards teenagers, I still found the book well worth reading. I went through the book as if I was looking through a window and seeing everything happen.
I would recommend this book to those who like reading about real life situations. Sep 09, Elah Horwitz rated it it was amazing. This extraordinary book is about how a young 14 year old girl fights back her cancer which has been in remission for almost about a year.
She has been struggling and fighting and hoping for a long time that her disease would go away. Many of you began reading my books when you were in middle and high school. Through the years, you wrote me letters, messages, and posts that also helped shape my stories and characters. You told me your personal stories—of love, lost friends, hardships, abuse, of determination.
And survival. All because you once read books that inspired you. Retailers and online sites will continue to sell my books. I will keep my website and social pages open for a season, and will always be thankful for your messages.
I hope you continue to read. To be kind. To love one another. And most of all, I hope you dance!

This one I didn't like as much. It seemed kind of pointless and Dawn really annoyied me in this one. I'm happy Jake came back and towards the end I liked it better but in the middle in was kind of okay lets get on with this. Jan 18, Addy.
I think this book is pretty good so far, it's about a girl with cancer, and how she is struggling to get "normal" life after all that she has been through. She finds it even harder now since she is starting to go back to high school. Mar 09, Abby O rated it it was amazing. I also gave this book a five star because i liked it also.
Jun 08, Katie rated it it was amazing. I was glad that Dawn Rochelle was finally able to come to terms with being in "two worlds", blend them together, put the past to rest and start moving forward with a happy future! It was also cute that she got to tell Jake she has had feelings for him for a long time and that he felt the same way. Why I like all this author books. I just completely finished this series and they were great about a young girls journey with cancer and her ability to help other patients and families of cancer at camp.
