Editorial Reviews
From School Library Journal
Grade 6-9?Julie Ellis and football star Luke Muldenhower had everything going for them?popularity, good grades, and love. Then Luke develops Hodgkin's Lymphoma. Shaken to the core, Julie is determined to help him through his chemotherapy and get through this ordeal so their lives can return to normal. Then masses are discovered in his chest and groin area. Soon after he begins radiation therapy, their close relationship begins to deteriorate as Luke pushes Julie away. This novel contains excellent information on cancer treatments and the emotional world of cancer victims and those who love them. The characters are convincing enough to draw readers into the drama and the inevitable conclusions that occur when one is faced with a life-threatening illness. McDaniel shows her literary expertise by humanizing a terrible disease and guiding readers through the whole process of illness. This is a good choice for either bibliotherapy or recreational reading. Just make sure there are tissues nearby.?Jana R. Fine, Clearwater Public Library System, FL

The Library of Congress was wise to choose this book for its time capsule. McDaniel brilliantly captures what every mortally ill person, parent, or friend feels at this terrifying and uncertain time. Luke and Julie, both 17, have loved each other most of their lives. When Luke is diagnosed with Hodgkin's disease, they must learn to cope. Both McDaniel and Alyssa Bresnahan perfectly capture the hope, fear, and sorrow of everyone involved with Luke (including his football coach and team members). The story is sad, but also believable and realistic. Bresnahan makes the listener feel part of this uncertain journey and its ultimate conclusion.
