My new favorite book! ( )

in a dark and twisted way i can see why her mom did what she did but it was in no way the right thing to do. I literally read this book in one day. it's such an amazing book and the way we're introduced to Olly and seeing their love blossom was just adorable. ( )

I've been desperately trying to pick up all the YA books I wanted to read but missed out on during their hypes. Nicola Yoon is one of those authors that I just sink into her books and disappear for a while. They are always easy to read, relatable (to some degree), and just a breathe of fresh air. She tells stories from different points of views that I actually want to read and I always care about the characters. She's reliable, and it's such a nice change of pace when I see a book with her name on it.

Everything, Everything had a "twist ending" that I saw from a hundred miles away. Did that bother me? Nope! It was like a ticking time bomb waiting to happen. I knew it was coming, and I just kept hoping my heart wouldn't break. And lucky for me, Nicola Yoon didn't destroy my heart (too much anyways).

Our lead is a very sickly girl and is so sick she's stuck inside all day. But one day her life changes completely when she falls for the boy next door... She takes risks and tries to have a normal teenaged life, but what she learns is going to change her life forever....

I adored this book and I need more. Give me part 2 because I want to follow these two not problematic characters to the end. I love it. That's all I have to say. So sweet. This is the kind of YA I adore. A fun story that whisked me away from reality for a while. Is it a potentially generic read? Sure. Do I care? Not at all.

Five out of five stars. ( )

My disease is as rare as it is famous. Basically, I’m allergic to the world.I don’t leave my house, have not left my house in seventeen years. The only people I ever see are my mom and my nurse, Carla.

But then one day, a moving truck arrives next door. I look out my window, and I see him. He's tall, lean and wearing all black—black T-shirt, black jeans, black sneakers, and a black knit cap that covers his hair completely. He catches me looking and stares at me. I stare right back. His name is Olly.
Maybe we can’t predict the future, but we can predict some things. For example, I am certainly going to fall in love with Olly. It’s almost certainly going to be a disaster. ( )

I am sure if I was reading this as a young adult I would have absolutely loved this book. It was an enjoyable and quick read. ( )

Here is my secret. It’s quite simple:
One sees clearly only with the heart.
Anything essential is invisible to the eyes.
-Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince
