Summary: It Brought a Tear to my Eye
Review: A Time to Die has to be my favourite book in the OWL series. Kara and Vince's struggle to live is very inspiring and I admire them both for their courage and determination. Because I, along with my brother, am a victim of CF, I was glad to see someone trying to make the world more aware of this disease. I could really relate to Kara and Vince and found their thoughts and feeling about their disease to be similar to my own. This book is very well written with interesting characters and plot twists. This book brought a definite tear to my eye.

Summary: A girl tries to cope with the fact that she has CF.
Review: I loved the book and I think the world should be more aware of the disease CF. Since I have the disease myself I think its a really great way people can find out about it. Since CF is an uncurable disease I thinks its a good way for the world to find out about the disease and donate to the cause.

Summary: A Great Book!
Review: I really enjoyed Lurlene McDaniel's novel, A time to die. It was not a tremendously long book, but it still captured the emotiond of all the characters. All of Lurlene McDaniel's books are very sad and sometimes difficult to read because of this. But, at the same time, she incorporates happy, heart-warming bits of information that sort of turn the mood around. This novel is about a 16-year-old girl named Kara who has been diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis. The story shows her struggle to stay alive and it tells about her relationships with her 4 best friends; Eric, Christy, Elyse, and Vince, who is also a C.F. patient. I recommend this book to middle-schoolers and up because some of the emotions and concepts may be a bit difficult for younger children to understand. This book really touched my heart and I suggest that you buy it if you're in need of a good laugh, cry, or both.

Summary: A Story of Friendship and Death
Review: Of all of the Lurlene McDanilel books that I have read, which is almost all of them, this is my personal favorite. The book focuses on the life of a sixteen year old girl, Kara. She was diagnosed with C.F. when she was a young girl. She has had an on going friendship with a guy a few years older then her for a long time. He is one of her dearest friends. His name is Vince. He also has C.F. Durning the book she starts a relationship with her doctor's younger brother, Eric. Eric and Vince do not get a long, but for Kara's sake they try too. When Kara's C.F. starts to take serve effects on her, she is hospitalized. As a result to the serveness of the disease, she dies very young. This is a very compelling book that I would recommend to anyone. Just remember to have a kleenex box within reach.
