What Lies Around The Bend...

"Despite the tumor-shrinking medical miracle that has bought her a few years, Hazel has never been anything but terminal, her final chapter inscribed upon diagnosis. But when a gorgeous plot twist named Augustus Waters suddenly appears at Cancer Kids Support Group, Hazel's story is about to be completely rewritten." Review: This was a wonderfully written book. Even though it’s about two kids with cancer, their wit and playful banter and of course all their inside jokes had me laughing till my sides hurt. I loved every minute of it...  except for the very end, for reasons I'll let you experience for yourself.

Update: It's been a couple years since reading this book and the movie has been out for some time, so I think I need to update myself on this book. It was a good book and I laughed

But that's all it took. One heartbeat. A blink, a breath, a second, and everything she knew and loved was gone. Her father was right. The monsters are real. To avenge her family, Ali must learn to fight the undead. To survive, she must learn to trust the baddest of the bad boys, Cole Holland.

And the zombies themselves were completely different from what other books lead you to believe. I also loved Alice and Cole's relationship but what I loved
