Spin around,
Touch the ground,
And scream!!!
YAY!
Okay, I'll calm down...a little :)
Here's the cover and book description one last time!
All Kate wants is to live. Battling cystic fibrosis is hard enough, dying
from it is even harder. When her mom moves them closer to the hospital in the
middle of her senior year, Kate’s determined to isolate herself—saving everyone
the trouble of befriending a dying girl. It’s a difficult task when cheerful
optimist Giana insists on being Kate’s friend.
Kate’s resolve falters even more when curly-haired Kyler captivates her
with his sweet melodies. As her emotional walls collapse, Kate realizes the
people she’s been pushing away may be the ones giving her a reason to live. But
it might be too late.

Here are the first 2 fun facts!!!
1.
I love salad. I’m one of those people who order
the salad instead of the steak. But I usually order the whopping one, and eat
the whole thing. Can you say, CafĂ© Rio sweet pork salad? I think my mouth’s watering.
2.
I’ve been
to 48 states…in a 15 passenger van. Including right into downtown Manhattan
with a full-size trailer pulled behind with a homemade wing on top for better
gas mileage. Yeah, it was all sorts of awesome.
