4.5!
I wasn't lying I think I teared through most of this book. It was a very quick read because the chapters were extremely short, sometimes just one paragraph or one sentence. Sometime it was written in text form or email convos. I loved the execution and the writing style of Nicola Yoon. I know I love someone's writing when it tugs at my heart strings and that's what this book did, constantly. I can't wait to read more from Nicola Yoon! ...more

WOW! This book was really, really good. I loved the main character and Ollie was a peculiar love interest, especially since Maddy suffers from a terrible condition. I did have a few problems and I wasn't a huge fan of the ending, but overall, I really adored it and cannot wait to get my hands on a physical copy of the book. ...more

First book finished for the BookTubeAThon!

I’m not gonna do a typical review. Instead I’m gonna list all the reasons why you should pre-order it asap. And read it as soon as you get it:

It’s short, sweet and easy to read;
Female protagonist is a bookworm and book blogger;
Unique and unlike other YA books I’ve read;
Great plot twist;
Text accompanied by related illustrations;
Stunning cover;
One of my favorite 100+ books I’ve read this year.
Keep these things in mind:

Spoilers for other books, mainly Lord ...more

3.5, maaaaybe 4 stars, maybe even 3 stars. I'll have to sit on it some more.

I don't think I can express how much I disliked the "twist" if you can really call it that as it was obvious. Maybe I'm bitter because I expected this to be a 5 star read for me. Maybe I'm m just sad and emotional feeling for one characters struggles and not another's. Regardless, I'm frustrated by the design of this.

However, there were so many things I loved about this. Adored about this in fact. Having a POC MC, the r ...more

There was so much hype around this book...is that why I couldn't rate it 5 stars?
I really enjoyed this read, and for people who don't read contemporary books often, this would be UTTER PERFECTION. Alas! That is not the case for me, as even though I liked this, I didn't love it... Butit wasn't an average read either. I thought that it had great morals, great characters and great plot direction.
Only thing is...how could you spend your whole life inside and not go looking round your house for proof ...more

I wanted to read this book since the moment I first heard about it and after reading some reviews I needed to read it even more. I f you haven't heard about this book (something that I doubt) basically it is about a 18 year-old girl, Madeline, that is allergic to the world and can't leave her house. Maddy lives a «normal» life and only has contact with her mom, her nurse and confident Carla and some teachers that sometimes go to her house. This is until Olly's family moves in next door and changes her life. I loved the characters from this book and how they were described. They are normal people with flaws like everyone but even when it looked that someone was doing something wrongs you knew that they were doing for a reason. Maddy is a great character that tries to live her life as normal as she can but starts to feel that she wants more after meeting Olly. I also loved how Olly felt the need to protect Maddy and everyone around him especially after knowing what he was going through. The scenes between the two of them were so cute, funny and sweet that I could read a lot more pages of that. In the beginning it looks like it is an instalove thing but due to Maddy's situation and because it was so well written it was something that didn't bug me as much as normally would.

This book might seem short but the characters development is great and you can see the difference in the characters at the end of the book, especially Maddy. Not only that but I also loved how the chapters in this book were organized and how it wa filled with illustrations that were important for the story. The most important for me was how the end was left open to the reader's imagination and how amazingly this was done.

Overall, this was a beautifully well-written book and was one of my favorites of the year so far. I loved everything about it and anything I write about this book will not make any justice to it. You should definitely read this book. I look forward to read more books written by Nicola Yoon. ...more

A very good YA contemporary. I didn't love it though, the characters was special enough for me. But I really did love the plot of the book and how it ended. ...more

I was so excited to read Everything, Everything because lots of my friends on here have been raving about it. The hype this book has received prior to its release date has been incredible!

However, I wasn't blown away by this book. I immediately felt like it was a mix of The Fault In Our Stars and Finding Audrey. I also wasn't amazed by those super-popular books either.

I'm going to try and express my opinion the best I can without giving away any spoilers. Once I got about half-way through the ...more

4.5/5 stars. I need more! Even just another chapter would have been great.

Why didn't I read this sooner!?

This definitely surprised me a couple of times and I'm so glad that it did. I can't wait to read Nicola's next book soon *squee* ...more
