One of the kind of many books I have read and one that I like the most was, A Rose For Melinda by Lurlene McDaniel. I had read this book a year ago when I was in my senior year of high school. I found this book based on my classmate, she told me it was such an amazing book that it so heartwarming and touching that it would make me cry. The book is about a ballet dancer name Melinda Skye whose dream was to become a prima ballerina and to work for a huge company, but along the way she had a collapse during a ballet dance that would give her opportunities. When taken to the hospital the doctor run a lot of analysis and she then gets the sad news that she has leukemia. I remember this book because it reminds me of my Grandmother who also fought for cancer. Also because it shows the protagonist point of view on how she felt for during her chemo therapy, and that is something that I would had really like to know how someone felt, since my grandmother never told me anything of that because she would always tell me she was fine. When she passed away I was really young and at the time I didn’t quite understood what she felt during that period of time. One of my favorite parts of this book was when her and her long time best friend Jesse Rose would send each other letter and e-mails when he moved out with his mother after his parents got divorce. I would really recommend this book to everyone because it’s really real like it has problems that maybe everyone goes through and can relate to.
