"Before I Die" summary

The book "Befor I Die" is a novel written by Jenny Dawnham. It's her first and only novel till now. The book is about a 16-year-old girl named Tess, that knows, that not much time is left to live. Since she knows this she has changed. Her body looks ill like a skeleton. She's just lieing in bed watching out of the window. One day her friend Zoey visits her and Tess tells Zoey about her her plans. She made a list with all the things she wants to do before she dies.
After Tess tells Zoey that a journey starts where both try to finish "the list". The first point is having sex with a boy. Drugs were following. And things like "Say yes to everthing for one day".
Many funny things are following. Tess wants to make the rest of her life very exciting. Her dad is not very pleased about the behaviour of the two girls. He realy worries about Tess. He thinks she needs to rest and stay in bed. And he doesn't know anything about "the list". I don't want to tell the rest of the book, because YOU have to read it. It's very good.
