About The Book:
At thirty-one, Jessica Jackson has it all – the career she’s worked so hard for, the loving boyfriend and a cosy London flat they share with their cat. But a shock diagnosis turns Jess’s world upside down, and her contented life implodes with it. As Jess juggles her career with chemo, and learns that her perfect boyfriend isn’t quite so perfect after all, her friends’ lives continue to follow the script – the ‘I said yes’ Facebook announcements, the big white weddings and the baby scans. Worrying that she’ll be left behind, she turns to online dating as she figures out what the future holds. In the midst of it all, she meets Annabel, an enigmatic, enchanting twenty-seven-year-old, with incurable cancer. But while Annabel may be nearing the end of her life, she understands much more about living than anyone Jess has ever met. And Annabel is determined to show Jess how to make every day count.

My Review:
This story had me feeling all the feels, good and bad. It even made me cry a little. I loved Jess as a character, she was real and true. I also loved the story itself and was captivated from start to finish. I learned a lot about what cancer patients go through both physically and mentally. I also learned what the people they love and who love them back are feeling. This isn't your typical cancer patient book though as Jess uses humour to get through it and I loved that about her, I found it so refreshing, what a unique take. This is the type of book that makes you sigh and hug it when you are finished reading it. Such a poignant and thought provoking read. All. The. Stars.
