What Megan and her family must face is truly devastating. However, they all cling together and show each other much needed love. I think that every young woman should read this book.

I read this close to ten years ago now. It was so sad to read. You really feel for Megan and her family, and you sincerely hope that her mother would hang on as long as she could. This is extremely moving, and if you happen to come across a copy somewhere, I strongly encourage you to read this.

I am 33 years old but first read this book in grammar school. Looking back I think that maybe I was too young to have read Mother, Please Don't Die. I remember how sad I felt after reading the book and how for weeks Megan and her family's story stayed on my mind.

"Mother, Please Don't Die", written by Lurlene McDaniel, is an entertaining and well-written novel. The McCaffery family faces many controversies due to Mrs. McCaffery's health condition. In dealing with her mother's condition, Megan still proceeds with her everyday sports activities but does everything she can to keep her mother alive. Megan's siter, Audrey, is anxiously waiting for her wedding day but is afraid her mother will not make it to see her get married. The McCaffery girls bicker incessantly, which makes it harder for their mother to relax, and in the end, they find themselves closer than ever before. McDaniel has an amazing way with words and makes her reading fun and entertaining. She uses descriptive and precise words, and they are easy to understand. In this novel, she createst a vivid picture in my mind on every page. "Mother, Please Don't Die" has turned out to be one of my favorite books, and I would definitely read another book by McDaniel.

IM THE KIND OF PERSON THAT DOES NOT LIKE TO READ. BUT WHEN I WENT TO A BOOK FAIR SOMETHING ABOUT THE TITLE THAT DREW MY ATTENTION. WHEN I READ THE BEGINNING OF THE BOOK, I WAS NOT TO SCARED TO GO TO JUNOIR HIGH SCHOOL. YOU COULD SAY THAT THE BOOK GUIDE ME IN A WAY. THE MORE I READ THE MORE I WOULD NOT PUT THE BOOK DOWN. WELL TO MAKE ALONG STORY SHORT, I LAUGHED AND CRIED. I LOVED THE BOOK SO MUCH THAT I KEPT IT FOR A LONG TIME. I REALLY RECOMMEND THIS BOOK TO GUYS AND GIRLS THAT ARE STARTNG JUNIOR HIGH AND HIGH SCHOOL ITS THE BEST BOOK EVER WRITTEN.

I read this book about five years ago, and I don't remember much about it. What I do remember is that it was great and very heart moving. It was my first book I think I cried about. I thought her family stuck together well through thick and thin.
