Before I Die - Jenny Downham

Title: Before I Die


Author: Jenny Downham


Time It Took To Read: 6 Days

Plot:  Tessa has just months to live. Fighting back against hospital visits, endless tests, drugs with excruciating side-effects, Tessa compiles a list. It’s her To Do Before I Die list. And number one is Sex. Released from the constraints of ‘normal’ life, Tessa tastes new experiences to make her feel alive while her failing body struggles to keep up. Tessa’s feelings, her relationships with her father and brother, her estranged mother, her best friend, and her new boyfriend, all are painfully crystallised in the precious weeks before Tessa’s time finally runs out.

My Opinion: I think this book is probably one of the best books I have ever read. I love the way the book makes you feel her pain and feel like you are Tessa Scott. I would definitely read more of Jenny Downham's books! Although I could not read a certain chapter because it made me feel unwell I would still very much recommend this book to anyone 13 or over! My favourite part in the book is when she goes shoplifting with her best friend and they meet old schoolmates or when she jumps into a dirty river with a drunk man. 

Stars: 10/10
