A Great Read

I thoroughly enjoyed I want to live. I could really relate to Dawn, having a sister who has acute lymphocytic leukemia. I have seen and made friends with many people like Dawn and I have found their thoughts and feelings to be similar to those in the book. McDaniel's plot is exceptional and I found the book to be very heart-touching. Keep 'em coming, Lurlene McDaniel!

Wonderful!

I read this series for the first time when i was about 10. I think my mom read them to me actually. Since then I have read the entire series at least once a year!There are five books in the series: "Six Months to Live," "I Want to Live," So Much to Live for," "No Time to Cry," and a new one called "To Live Again."These books depict a young woman, Dawn Rochelle, who battles lukemia, and loves and loses some good friends along the way.It is pretty realistic and very touching. As a teen with a chronic illness, I can totally relate to many of Dawn's experiences, but even if you have never stepped foot in a hospital the "Six Months to Live" series will give you a look into the life of someone with an illness, and i guarantee it will leave you with a new appreication for life!

Great teen book

When I ordered this book I was sure that I would like it because I had read the first one. I loved this book, I couldn't put it down. I let two of my friends read it and they loved it. I would recomend this book to anyone who loves a good cry, and/or just a good book. I liked it because it showed that she was just an ordinary teenager at heart. God bless

this book was very informing.

This was a very serious book and if I were to rate this book from 1 to 5 I would have to give it a 5 because of the way th author wrote this book.

Really good book!

read this book for a book report and i finished it in 2c hours! i couldn't put it down!
