The women in her family have a history of dying young. Cayenne figures she'll meet the same fate, so she might as well enjoy life now, engaging in death-defying risks like dodging trains and jumping off cliffs with her boyfriend. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWhen Cayenne receives a series of video messages her mother made for her before dying, she isn't sure she wants them. Her aunt Tee has been her true mother figure. But then Aunt Tee tests positive for a BRCA gene mutation--the one that doomed Cayenne's mom--and decides to get a mastectomy to reduce her chances of developing cancer. As Cayenne helps her aunt prepare for the surgery, she finds herself drawn to her mother's messages, with their musings on life, love, and perseverance. For the first time, Cayenne starts to question what it truly means to live life to the fullest, even when death might be written into her DNA.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Carolrhoda Lab (R)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/04\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781541578890\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 312\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.30h x 5.60w x 1.20d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/15\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSchool Library Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/01\/2020 pg. 118\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/15\/2020 pg. 77\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Sarah Lynn Scheerger","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36658409242780,"sku":"9781541578890","price":16.14,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_b3bb7b69-b998-4c8d-9a5b-47cbaa4360f7.jpg?v=1603892842","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/how-to-live-on-the-edge-9781541578890","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
