A relatively good book about a girl named Eleanor, who clearly suffers with OCD, and her way of dealing with the imminent death of her father who has cancer. Her OCD plays a massive part in how she compartmentalizes the issues surrounding cancer and then magnifies these problems into world pandemics. Coupled with typical teen behaviour, she manages to get through with the help of her family and friends. The story was OK, nothing too exciting, I liked the little fact files at the beginning of each chapter. I also liked how the book touches on issues surrounding OCD and how it makes you feel on the inside, and how people who suffer from this deal with certain situations. Eleanor's family were very understanding of her "quirky" behaviours.
