This book was a total surprise. I had read 2 other books by her (one elementary & one YA) so I knew her writing style...short chapters, likeable characters but this book totally blew me out of the water. 
 The book was really real. This story has happened before and I think it was very true to what people and family members that are affected by this type of tragedy. I felt Jessica's pain and suffering. She did have her moments were she was really depressed but thank goodness for her friends and track teammates. I liked when she found out or she thought Gavin didn't like her and she didn't pine over him and whine. She just accepted it and moved on. I also like Jessica and Rosa's relation. I like how Rosa felt like an outsider because of her cerebral palsy. I think a lot of kids her age feel like that and don't bother to get to know them. 
 Wish we found out who the mystery donor was but I think it was Jessica and Rosa's math teacher. 
 Some of the parts of the book were predictable but that is ok with this story because the author wasn't so obvious with it. 
 Cute little Sherlock...can I have him? He probably wouldn't like me because I don't like to run, lol 
 I can't wait to share this book with students at my school.
