Good thought provoking book! Finished it in one sitting, like literally one sitting. A great social message against bullying. Felt really bad for both Daelyn and Santana but I think it finished too . I wanted to read some more!

To be quite honest, I hated this book. What Daelyn goes through is shitty but I mean it's just like almost every other YA novel that deals with depression, bullying, and suicide. Young girl hates herself, wants to die, one day she meets a boy that changes everything, blah blah blah, the end. The e...

For some reason, I'm always drawn to tough books that pull at my emotions and have me glued to the pages, hoping that something better will happen for the...

By The Time You Read This I'll Be Dead is the story of 15 year old Daelyn and her struggle with life. She is overweight and bullied for that very reason. This book I found was a fascinating account of how a suicidal person feels. The character was how you would expect blank, emotionless and confused...

Sometimes, rarely, a book will have a physical effect on me. Every time that I paused while reading this book, I found myself almost gasping for air. I wasn't exactly holding my breath. It was Daelyn's thoughts that were suffocating me. I can't explain why I felt this way, exactly. Maybe it was the ...
