  • What She Wants Before She Dies

    Before I die: as in right up to the moment when. As in every perception, every particle of one girl’s desire, regret, rage, lust, light, darkness, right to the end. And what a girl Tessa is, trapped in her failing body, in an unnamed English town. But then, she would have to be someone remarkable, wouldn’t she, to make us want to be inside her head with her, horribly alone, yet also strikingly free. It is in the quality of that freedom that Downham proves her abundant gifts as a writer, by showing us, in a stark interior poetry that never turns its back on the external world, what it is to face death honestly, as Tessa thinks, “before I’ve even lived properly.” “I wish I had a boyfriend. I wish he lived in the wardrobe on a coat hanger.”

  • Great book worth a read!

    Having read this book years ago, I wanted to purchase it to have it available to read again. It's a tear-jerker that really makes you think about the value of life and taking advantage of the time we have.
