I had not thought of it that way. I was constantly wondering why she did not reveal it. Thanks for the eye-opening thought. And of course, thanks for stopping by to comment!!Stephanie Elizabeth wrote: ↑07 Jun 2019, 16:45 Sounds like an endearing story about the power of friendship. I like the idea that the main character decided to keep her illness a secret because I think she is able to have more of an authentic experience. Exposing her illness could hinder the light spirit of her friends. Great review!

Having a terminal illness will make one fragile, I think. It's the way in which the genders react that is different. Also, if you think about it, people are unique in the way they react to unfortunate incidents in life. I understand why you wish to read non-fiction. It's more rooted in reality. Thanks for the review!!Flapper_chima wrote: ↑08 Jun 2019, 06:55 A nice story in the review up there but it seems women are a bit more fragile and emotional, wish to read more of non fiction though.

Even though there seems to be a lot of lies involved in this one, they don't appear to hinder that at all, which is rather interesting.
