The Time Capsule-Lurlene McDaniels

Alexis and Adam are twins, Adam is in remission from leukemia. In their senior year of highschool, they have already picked their colleges and are getting ready to graduate.
When Adam's symptoms start to come back, he covers them up, hoping that his already broken family won't have to deal with cancer again. But when they discover the unconcious Adam, far along in his recurrance, what will his family do? What will Alexis do? Adam is her second half.

A book of love and loss, and just how tight the sibling bond can be, I had tears pouring down my face for the last four chapters. Lurlene McDaniels is a fabulous author and all of her books are a joy to read!( But all very sad)

Emily,

Get the hankies out.

This is a definite tear jerker.

Lurlene is much loved.

She does have some adult romance but is not as well known in adult circles.

I find young adults come and ask for her stuff more than older adults.
