before i die

"before i die" is a book i read and it affected me deeply  , about a  16 years old girl named tessa who is dying from leukaemia ,  she made a" to do list" before she die , but since she doesn't have enough time , she started doing the important things on the list , this book is beyond perfect , the characters feels so real , it's sad and adventurous , after reading this book i kinda got into a mess about how should i start doing important things in my life and to make every moment count and never take anything for granted , i'm not related to cancer in anyway , i never knew anyone suffering from my familly or friend and i don't know how it feels to be dying , but this book is so realistic that can touch you as if you know tessa like one of your familly or friend , tessa is full of furious and humour and she longed for a life she know she doesn't have time to live it , there is also those amazing characters like her very supporting dad and her little brother and her best friend who's helping her to do the things she want , and then there is adam the one who made her last wish came true wich is falling in love , this adam is truely a hero in my point of view , he loved her too much , that he stuck around untill she passed away , the book look sad because it's about dying but it's really something powerfull that will make you stop and think for a moment about your life and how you should live your life and stop wasting your time , anyway i'm oumaima and i recommend this book , if you have any intention to read it please take a bag of tissues incase of feels :D
 the full name of the book and the author is " before i die by jenny downham"
P.S: they made a movie from this novel named " now is good" ( it may be missing a lot of scenes from the book , but i think the movie is awsome too)

  1. thank you Oumaima it's a beautiful story It is amazing how many things we take for granted. We make plans for the day, and don't think twice about how those plans can be taken away in the blink of an eye. we never thought much about it ourselves, until were faced with the shock, and undeniable truth of death. I don't think anyone really thinks about tragedy until they are actually faced with shocking news life is really a bless so we should take advange of it
