Maddie's book recommendations

One of the most recent books that I've read is a book called "Before I Die" By: Jenny Downham. This is a book about a young girl Tessa who is struggling with a disease called leukemia, she knows that she is going to die and that it wont take long until she's lost her life, so she decides that she is going to create a bucket list that will determine what she will do before she dies.
