Happy Birthday to Me by Brian Rowe
4.0
I really liked this novel.
I liked the premise of the story and the characters.
Cameron was at the beginning that kind of jerk that somehow everyone still likes. At least on the outside. But when things start to change for him, Cameron starts to think about his behaviour. I really liked his character development. It was from mean/semi-nice to pretty cool.
I also liked Wesley's and Liesel's character. Wesley because he was just such a good friend, although you wouldn't have thought so and also because of his artsy stuff. Liesel is just a character that we learn about pretty late in the book. I just loved her kindness, her warmth and most of all I thought she had such a cute name. Liesel, hah..
The only reason this novel doesn't get a five-star-rating was that I knew pretty early how Cameron's disease took place.
Other than that I cannot wait to read the sequel :)
