Grace is convinced she's going to die from a tropical disease she picked up on holiday. And the worst thing is that this all happens when she's already finished her exams! She decides this is the wake up call that she needs, she has been wasting her life studying and preparing for a boring job and boring life. But no more! She's determined she is going to make every moment count from now on. Off she goes to horseback riding on the beach, bungee jumping and doing something to help others. Of course, none of these turn out quite as she expected.
This book was hilarious in many places, touching and heart warming. Sometimes quite frustrating when Grace does something you just know is going to go wrong, but she always deals with it and moves on. It's all part of normal life after all.
Grace's mum was one of my favourite characters. She's so straightforward and unflappable, no matter what Grace tells her. In some parts of the book she seems so wise and in others completely clueless, but always there for her family.
