After being diagnosed with an aggressive form of leukemia, 18-year-old Ben Wolf elects to forgo treatment and keep his illness secret from his family and friends in an attempt to have a "normal" senior year at his small Idaho high school. Free from long-term consequences, he connects with his “crush”, frustrates his biased U.S. Government teacher, and tries out for football. However, Ben's illness slowly exacts its toll on him, and he begins to realize the consequences of keeping his condition hidden.
What would you do when you have a year to live? In this story, Ben answers that question- as he tries to have some normalcy. In the process, his life changes in amazing ways, but then he realizes that you can’t have a normal life when you are dying. Does he figure that out before it’s too late?
This book had an amazing story. Everyone thinks they know what they would do if they were dying, but this book answers that question. I laughed, and cried, and was entranced in the story. I wanted to know what happened next. This is a MUST read!
