(view spoiler)[
The way Madeline describes her pain is something I can relate to; the symptoms described by her is definitely something I've felt before - if without the dying part.
---

Maddy might not have SCID? :o
...This is kinda reminiscent of the movie Bubble Boy now (only this book is far more serious).
---

I think her mother, after losing her husband and son, is just so scared she might lose her daughter to the world that she'd rather keep her daughter locked away in a glass room, in a way reminiscent to Rapunzel.
---

Well on the bright side, she's not sick. On the not-so-bright side, her mom is.
---

That was such a beautiful and sweet ending. It's great to know that Madeline's mom is getting the help she needs, and that Madeline is able to go outside free from fear, to truly LIVE for the first time. I hope that she and Olly are able to be together forevermore <3

(view spoiler)[ So she was never sick. OMG. So her mum lied to her all these years, that death must have really affected her. ALL OF MADDY'S LIFE (hide spoiler)]

(view spoiler)[ I'm glad that she was able to be with Olly even if it's not forever. I hope that she can forgive her mum and that they have some kind of relationship. I wasn't expecting that ending at all and well the book was amazing. My heart still hurts in a way, and of course, sadly there's no sequel. (hide spoiler)]

[Elizabeth Emily]

I'm so sorry I'm late guys. I'm just gonna comment my thoughts here as I go along.

[Elizabeth Emily]

10%- (view spoiler)[ I can't imagine being Madeline. Being made to stay inside because everything makes her sick. I have days where I don't leave the house because of my anxiety but to never ever be able to step foot outside no matter how much you want to must be heartbreaking. To see the different seasons outside and the world passing by but only ever being able to watch. (hide spoiler)]

[Elizabeth Emily]

46%:- (view spoiler)[ Maddy is adorable and Maddy and Olly together? Even more so. I'm hoping that there will one day be a way that Maddy can go into the outside world. Perhaps she can put on an astronaut suit. I guess we'll see. Carla is being a little harsh but she's just trying to protect Maddy I guess. I also think it would be a good idea for Maddy to talk to her mum about every thing that's happening. (hide spoiler)]

[Elizabeth Emily]

68%:- (view spoiler)[ I can't believe she's ran away and chosen to go to Hawaii. That's more badass than anything I've ever done in my life. But I understand why she's doing it and if I was in her position I just hope that I'd be brave enough to do what she's doing. To actually live her life no matter what the consequences. (hide spoiler)]

[Elizabeth Emily]

80%:- (view spoiler)[ I love Nicola's writing style and I love everything that's happened in this book so far. Unfortunately I have to go to work now but I can't wait to read the last 20%. If I'm honest I'm dreading the next chapter or so as it's titled the end but we'll just have to see what happens. I love olly and Maddy so much they're just perfect and they fit. (hide spoiler)]

Even I love the author's writing..Its soo beautiful and poetic..

[Elizabeth Emily]

85% (view spoiler)[ Noooooooooo. Maddy... don't do this. Be still my broken heart.


P.s. yes I'm shipping these two pretty damn badly... (hide spoiler)]

[Elizabeth Emily]

100%. (view spoiler)[ wow. Really? That took me by surprise. I can't believe she wasn't really sick. (hide spoiler)]

[Dr. Andy]

Olly (view spoiler)[ I like these two characters though her opening statement of "I've read more books than you and don't argue" kind of made me upset. Like yeah she's had all this time to read, but it seemed like it took her forever to read Lord of the Flies. At least she thought that book was shit, cause I hated it too. (hide spoiler)]

[Dr. Andy]

Outside (It was spelled really weirdly) (view spoiler)[ This girl is a freaking idiot. I can't believe she'd keep this a secret from her mom. Like what a dick move. Also she fucking ran outside when she has this disease. She's lucky she didn't fall over and die within the first couple of seconds. It's like she doesn't take her disease seriously enough or maybe has a death wish. (hide spoiler)]

[Dr. Andy]

Jump (view spoiler)[ This ungrateful bitch. I don't like Maddie anymore. She decides to run away and all she leaves is a FUCKING NOTE. Her mother is going to have a heart attack. And then she'll have another when Maddie eventually has a horrible allergy attack and almost dies. Either she's incredibly lucky at this point or her sickness is a lie. (hide spoiler)]

[Dr. Andy]

Proof of Life (view spoiler)[ ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME THE SICKNESS WAS A LIE!?!! No. I don't like this. I AM MAD. UGHHHHHHHHHH (hide spoiler)]

[Dr. Andy]

Finished (view spoiler)[ I did not like this! After the first half I couldn't even like MAddie and the romance made me want to puke. Though I still liked Olly, he deserved better though. I really felt for Maddy's mom and she's not broken that's a horrible description of the complex things that have happened to her. ugh (hide spoiler)]

I hope you finish that eventually! I loved the series but the first 3 books are definitely the best.

[Rachael]

Hi ladies! I'm going to start this now.. it's been a really long time since I've done a buddy read but I needed some inspiration and motivation so here I am! Happy reading!

[Avid]

I read the book, but after a few chapters it just didn't feel right to me. It was too uncomfortable for me to read. I didn't learn much, and for some reason when I'd watched the film I couldn't seem to cry. For the A walk to remember film, I had cried for an hour, but this didn't seem to move me to tears....
I also felt like it was similar to 'The fault in our stars.'

[Dr. Andy]

The fault in our stars was a better book than this. This book made me book and I felt ripped off after I was done.

[Avid]

Andrea wrote: "The fault in our stars was a better book than this. This book made me book and I felt ripped off after I was done."

Agreed.

[Dr. Andy]

Though I didn't cry for either of these books. It is a rare event for a book to make me physically cry.

[Avid]

Andrea wrote: "Though I didn't cry for either of these books. It is a rare event for a book to make me physically cry."
Really? Not even the movie 'A walk to remember?' Or the time when Bailey died in the sisterhood of the travelling pants?
And not even in the noughts and crosses series????

I haven't read any of those or seen the movies for them.

The only book that I can remember that really made me cry was .
As for movies, I almost cried in The Greatest Showman. I definitely cried in Les Miserable (the new version with Hugh Jackman), and probably a couple other recent movies but I don't remember.

I was really excited for that part as well :) I'm glad you're liking it so far!
