Another book finished. I start a new review. I am going to start this review a bit different. I'm going to ask some questions I doubt anyone will reply to them. 1. Are you enjoying these blog posts? 2. Is there more of a certain book type you want me to review? What type? 3. Finally, what is your preferred blog post length, straight to the point or long and a bit a ramble? If you do decide to answer these questions. Leave the answers in the comment section of this blog post. I will try my best to reply to all the answers. I don't bite, I promise. Anyway back to the review. The book I'm reviewing this time is Everything Everything by Nicola Yoon.
Sometimes readers like to know more about the author. Well this is that very part. This is all the information that you need to know. Here we go, Nicola Yoon grew up in Jamaica and Brooklyn which is part of Long Island, U.S.A. Nicola currently resides in Los Angeles with her husband and daughter. Everything Everything is her first novel. David Yoon is Nicola's husband he is a writer and a designer. David created the illustrations for this book.
I like to give many of readers snip bits of all the books I review. This part of my review is still going to be the same as always. So here is what the blurb from the back of the book says, "Maddy is allergic to the world. She hasn't left her house in seventeen years." "Olly is the boy next door. He's determined to find a way to reach her." Just two little bits this time I'm afraid. As nobody likes to have massive spoilers on the book. That would result in no one buying the book and that wouldn't be good for the author.
I think that most people like other people's opinions/reviews on things. So here is mine. Where do I start? Maybe the front cover is a good place to start. There are many reasons why this book grabbed my attention. The main thing though is the splash of colour that makes your eyes turn away from other books. For that reason I would buy this book alone. Onto the book itself, I knew when I started it, it was going to be a good book I mean who doesn't enjoy a young-adult book every now and again. I enjoyed the shortness of some chapters as it kept my attention for longer. Which kept me reading for longer. This leads me on to say that I could not put the book down that's how I finished this book in one sitting. I was enjoying Maddy and Olly's adventure too much. I tried to finish each page faster than the last. I wanted to stay up to speed with what was going on. I didn't want the book to end though. I liked the way that Nicola wrote the characters and how she wrote the many major topics that are happening daly around the around the world. Through the characters and how they dealt with the situation. It tells us that nobody is ever on their own. So just like Maddy I could re-read this book over and over and never get bored. As this is her fist novel, I can't wait to read what she writes in the future.
I would recommend this book to anyone aged 16 and over as there is some swearing throughout this book. I would give this book a solid 10/10. It was a great read.
