Telling Christina Goodbye

This is an Amazing book called Telling Christina Goodbye by Lurlene McDaniel about a teenage girl in high school and her and her group of friends/her life in general. She is the kindest person and everyone loves her except for shes in a relationship where her boyfriend doesn't appreciate her as much as she does him. Everyone is telling her shes to good for him, and that she should break-up with him. One night she hits a patch of black ice and has a car accident. She dies and everyone is incredibly upset and they finally realize (her BF included) what a pity it was that she didn't get as much love as she gave in her life, and how much you should appreciate everything you have, and live your life to the fullest. I definitely recommend this book to anyone who loves sad stories that relate to real life situations. 5 stars.
