“When I was little I believed in Jesus and Santa, spontaneous combustion, and the Loch Ness monster. Now I believe in science, statistics, and antibiotics.” So says seventeen-year-old Zac Meier during a long, grueling leukemia treatment in Perth, Australia. A loud blast of Lady Gaga alerts him to the presence of Mia, the angry, not-at-all-stoic cancer patient in the room next door. Once released, the two near-strangers can’t forget each other, even as they desperately try to resume normal lives. The story of their mysterious connection drives this unflinchingly tough, tender novel told in two voices.

The last person Zac expects in the room next door is a girl like Mia angry and feisty with questionable taste in music in the real world be wouldn't couldn't be friends with her but in the hospital different rules apply and what begins as a knock on the wall leads to a note then a friendship neither of them were coming...

This is a good book for my brother. But i don't think he will like it.

I really enjoyed this book! It's about two teens with seemingly different lives who meet by chance due to them both having cancer. It's not appropriate for kids in sixth grade and younger, however. But if you do decide to read it, I hope you enjoy!

its a book that i found on mrs.shufert but it was not my type of book so im reading people
