Bucket Lists & Cancer


By Mitzy D.

Julie Halpern, an author of many young adult novels, wrote the fiction story "The F*ck It List". While dealing with her father's death in a car accident and with the fact that her best friend slept with her boyfriend all summer, Alex receives bad news; Becca, her best friend, has cancer. Not knowing if Becca was going to survive her illness, they made a deal; Alex was going to complete Becca's bucket list. As Becca went through her battle with cancer, Alex attempts to finish the whole bucket list, but events happen and new people come into her life which soon gets Alex to experience feelings she's never felt before.

"The F*ck it  was a funny novel and I really enjoyed it. Although it was a bit cliche in the the end, It had an important lesson to it. The book stated to live our lives to the fullest. 

I recommend this book to young adults because they can relate to what goes through with the characters and the events that happen.
