It‘s cute. I never saw the movie so I wasn‘t sure where it would go. The ending could have been a little better however.

Holy crap! I had no idea what this YA novel was actually about, but I was not expecting Münchausen Syndrome by Proxy! What a heart breaking novel. A young girl who knows nothing of the outside world suddenly falls in love with her new neighbor but can‘t understand the nuances of the space between them. She risks everything to be with him and ends up not only discovering the traumas within her own family, but discovering what it is to really⬇️

The bookish references were a fine nod to book lovers in this one. Also, the ending of this one took me by surprise. 4/5 stars only because I had a hard time believing who became her neighbors & an 18 year olds credit card limit. 😂

Everything, Everything, is about a 18 year old girl named Madeline who has SCID, a disease where being exposed to anything and everything could kill her. Some parts of this book are written normally, and others are graphs, email chains, notebook entry's, etc., which, at least for me, makes it a more interesting read. I get bored reading some of the time, and having the book broken up like this, makes it more engaging for me and a faster read.

Quick, easy read for fans of YA. I myself am more of an older adult - much older, so probably not the best at giving an unbiased review. I can imagine younger me enjoying this book very much! Some beautiful descriptive writing and an interesting format, with illustrations, diary entries etc.

“My diseases is as rare as it is famous. It‘s a form of Severe Combined Immunodeficiency (SCI), but basically I am allergic to the world. I don‘t leave my house, have not left my house in fifteen years.”
A debut book by Nicola Yoon, which is very underrated but it‘s a good read. A story about a girl with SCI, how she is living her life in a house.
I can give this book 4.5. Really enjoyed reading it.

The book talks about two teenagers one who‘s a girl that is basically allergic to the world an cannot leave her very sanitary an safe house an then you have a boy who moved in next door an is very curious about the life functions of the girl. Rules are broken an relationships loose their bond for another. I love the book it keeps me intrigued an surprised. The theme is love an life risks because through love a girl is willing to risk her life.

Madeline Whittier has a severe disease called SCID (severe combined immunodeficiency) meaning that she‘s extremely vulnerable outside and can get ill from even taking a breath of fresh air. She has to stay inside the filtered confines of her house at all times, but she‘s fine with that. She‘s never had many reasons to want to go outside. Then one day, she meets a boy named Olly, who moves into the house next to hers.

Ily_vuc They start talking online, and then eventually meet in person with the help of Madeline‘s nurse, Carla. As she starts to fall in love with Olly, Madeline realizes just how much she‘s been missing out on her whole life. She struggles to choose between her feelings and the need to not get attached to something she can‘t have. However, the more she tries to let it go the harder it becomes. 2y
Ily_vuc She ends up having to decide between risking her life for love and an amazing experience, or continuing to live in a restricted box.
This book is written in the first person point of view, because Madeline (the main character) tells the story. The author uses pronouns like “I” and “we”, which shows us that Madeline tells us what‘s going on from her point of view.
2y
Ily_vuc If you enjoy reading books that deal with the meaning of life and the power of love, then this book would be a great read for you. Moreover, if you like books that have short chapters, I‘d recommend this book. 2y
MissYaremcio Thank you for the review Ily! This book has been on my to-read list for years! 6/6 2y

18-year-old Madeline Whittier was diagnosed with immunodeficiency aka “bubble baby disease”, which prevents her from ever leaving her house. She is forced to stay home with her mother and nurse reading books and looking through a window day after day. When a new family moves in next door Maddy watches with curiosity and she wishes that she could for once leave her hermetically sealed environment.

sarahtalbot The son of the new family, Olly, won‘t let Maddie‘s disease or her mother stop him from showing her the world. After Maddy and Olly break free from her sealed home her worst fears come to life. She ends up in the hospital and the doctor confirms that her immune system is in fact weakened. Eventually, Maddy‘s mother reveals that Maddy has always been perfectly healthy. 2y
sarahtalbot I really liked this book. There was never a dull moment for me and I would suggest it to everyone who loves a “forbidden love” story. The chemistry between Maddy and Olly was felt all the way through and they were very well developed. I will definitely be reading another book by Nicola Yoon again! 2y
MissYaremcio Nicely done Sarah! This looks like such a good read - I definitely need to read it! I was just missing your POV and how it is established. 4/6 2y

What I did like was the unique way the book was presented: different chapters had drawings, diagrams, emails, and journal entries making the book mixed-media.
However, that‘s where what I like stops. I felt the plot was way too slow. For much of the book, nothing happens. Then, when stuff does happen, the biggest plot flaw is how in the world do these two teenagers get money??? Plus, the romance was very insta-love.

Everything Everything by Nicola Yoon

This book was okay, it's not something I'd read over and over again, but its worth a re-read. The format is what I think the best part of this book. It's not your traditional text, there's illustrations, funky handwriting, and quotes and texts. That part was what made this book enjoyable. This is phenomenal work by Nicola Yoon, considering this is her first novel.

4⭐️ Did I like it, yes. Is it something that I will read again, possibly. Was it pretty predictable, absolutely! Mind you that it was meant for young readers, and while I love a good YA, I am an adult. I will say that while I predicted what was going to happen, it‘s still got my emotions pretty intense. It was really well written and worth reading.

5✨ I haven‘t started and finished a book in hours I think ever. This book was so good. I‘ll admit it was an audiobook, but suggest having the copy as well because of the illustrations, charts, and emails. I checked through every so often. I‘ll save my full discussion for my hometown book club. 😍

1. Since I came to the conclusion this year that one thing I truly love is reading and can't believe it took so long for me to discover, I am setting my reading goal to be 24 books at the least in 2021. I'm a super busy mom/wife but I plan to make time for myself.
2. The book tagged!- Everything, Everything, I don't usually read about illness. This book does look very good though.
3. Sarah J. Maas-I hear so much about her.

Definitely one of my favorite novels. I am an author of young adult romance as well, for it was this story that inspired me to write my fifth novel. Maddy definitely stole my heart, but Ollie swept her off her feet. I remember watching the film first before actually reading the book, and while on deployment, I read and finished a great novel. I am so ready to read more by this wonderful author.

Some words the author used in this book for me to understand more matter was vocabulary us teens use everyday. Which made me put an imagination in my head better and understanding what the character is saying. Plus, the words she was using fits so good with the characters because this book is about this teenage girl and the author is using words any typical teenage girl would be using but at the same thing she's using “high class words.“

Everything Everything is a realistic fiction by Nicola Yoon. This book is about Madeline Whittier who was diagnosed with SCID. Her disease is extremely rare and dangerous so she has spent her whole life in her house. A family moves next door with a son named Olly. The book revolves around them and how their relationship grows. I loved reading this book and there is an amazing twist. I would recommend it to anyone who likes realistic fiction books.

CambriaBell27 Sounds like a good book that I would read 3y

Non-Fiction: the author choose to do it that way?
The text I read today was strutted very well and was very interesting. I got to know the other character in the book a little more better and their personal life. The way the author chose to do the text I was reading today was really good, she did something like they were texting back and forehead if that makes sense. It generally made the book more interesting and showed their personalities.
