Book Review / "Everywhere, Everywhere" by Juliette Caron

Everywhere, Everywhere by Juliette Caron

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


What should a good book do? First, it should make you forget the reality. Second, it must transport you to a different one and keep you there while you read.

“Everywhere, Everywhere” by Juliette Caron ticks both these boxes effortlessly.

Lately, I’ve turned back into a ‘before bedtime’ reader. There simply aren’t enough hours in a day. So, I try to choose the books that can put my mind off things while providing me with food for thought. It isn’t an easy task since ‘serious’ books tend to overdo it with seriousness. At the same time, ‘easy’ reads are usually too easy for me to even get into the story.

“Everywhere, Everywhere” is a perfect combination of both. It is an easy read that makes you turn the pages, dance with the main character at the masquerade ball, drive with her in her brand new ‘Mustang’ received as a school graduation present, and explore the quirky town that attracts tourists with its reputation of being haunted. On the other hand, the story delves into exploring human character. It tackles the issues of people’s behaviour, their motives, as well as dealing with grief.

Charlotte and Lucian believe no one knows them better than they know each other. They share every secret, every disturbing thought and every controversial concept that comes to their mind with each other. Charlotte and Lucian are in love – even though they have never met.

When Lucian, a young man she fell in love through letters, breaks up with her, Charlotte grabs at the first opportunity to drive to spooky Windfall in Colorado where he lives to find out the reason why or at least a closure. What she finds there, is very far from what she – and I’m sure the readers! – has expected. Determined to untangle the tight knot of mysteries and secrets Lucian has shrouded himself in, Charlotte checks in at the hotel where human occupants aren’t the only guests.

“Everywhere, Everywhere” is a beautiful, unusual love story that will change your perception of a happy-ever-after ending.
