Life On The Refrigerator Door

I read Life On The Refrigerator Door, by Alice Kuipers. In the novel, Claire is a fifteen year old girl who only lives with her mother. Both mother and daughter lead extremely busy lives and it leaves them to communicating by constantly writeing notes to eachother on the refridgerator door. So the story is ocmpletely notes from them. Throught these notes, a story developes on how Claire's mother developes breat cancer and how they carried on through the whole problem. I really liked the book because it was short and easy to read but it also had a meaning behind it. It turned out to be a really sad story, even though it was only through short notes. I really liked the way the author used the note strategy, because it made the story a lot more interesting.
