Sam and Jules have been best friends since they were nine years old. They grew up dancing together and loved it. During the summer before their senior year, everything was going well until one morning when Jules was at dance class, her hip and back were in major pain. Later her mom and dad took her to several hospitals but they couldn't find anything wrong Then they went to a specialist, and she diagnosed Jules with bone marrow cancer.

Jule's life is turned upside down when she has to quit dance and school. The doctors put Jules on chemotherapy. As she regains her strength, she starts dancing and going back to school again. Then, out of rebellion, she quits chemotherapy. She loses all her strength and has to quit dance and school. As she gets weaker and weaker, she loses her best friend Sam. Will they ever renew their friendship? Will Jules ever get better? Find out by reading the book.

This book was super sad. I did not like the ending. This was my #1 favorite book, most definitely! (180 words)
