I actually read this sfter it came out. And I've watched the movie when that came out. The book was actually really good and I had a blast watching the movie but the story was kinda unrealistic with her mom being able to just keep her daughter from going anywhere with some false doctor notes. Like someone else would of came along and noticed something wasn't right. But still liked it when I read it all those years ago.

EVERYTHING, EVERYTHING by Nicola Yoon is a must read contemporary YA novel about a girl who begins to examine her life and search for meaning. The characters are compelling and so very well developed. Being told through multiple mediums enhances the overall novel. It's compulsively readable and Yoon hits the nail on the head with the ending.

As a high school librarian at an all-girls high school, Nicola Yoon's books continue to have huge appeal -- and student take so much away from the themes and issues explored in the novel. This is an essential purchase for all high school libraries and young adult collections.

A really enjoyable YA story. I loved the characters. Ending was surprising and not so out of left field that it felt unbelievable. Would recommend.

I was really excited to read this book. Nicola Yoon seems to be a pretty beloved author, and this was her debut novel, and I was excited to see what this story would be like. Plus I want to watch the movie. I don't read much YA contemporary, but I had a really good time reading Maddy's story!

The idea of being stuck in your home because you're basically allergic to the world, well, if I had a choice, I would stay home. But Maddy doesn't have that choice, which the ability to choose becomes a tipping point between a good and bad situation.

I mean, the synopsis said that it was going to be a disaster. That was easy to know. But what was harder was if that was where it was going to end, or if there was going to be a workable solution that would leave the characters in a better, happier, place.

The way it ended with that twist, I'm conflicted. I'm glad that there was a happy ending but given that twist, everything that happened, it was like, what was the point? I wish that it'd been done differently, but that it'd arrive at a similar outcome. Bah!

This was a really great read, and I'm really glad that I did read it!

Thank you for the opportunity to read and review this eARC! I am cleaning my Netgalley shelf and I noticed I hadn’t reviewed this yet.

It has been awhile since I read this book, but I do remember that I enjoyed it thoroughly! The characters were likable and their development was great. The plot continued to keep me engaged throughout the book. I would definitely recommend it! Thank you again!

Thank you to delacorte books and NetGalley for an advanced copy for an honest review. The main character is allergic to everything and lives in her sealed house with her mom and nurse. Once the new neighbor boy moves in and expands her world. Maddy and olly were written well and it was a great story.

Years later, I found the phantom book I didn’t give feedback for. Oops. It’s been years since I read this but I really enjoy Yoon’s writing style and contemporary stories. She’s an auto-read author for me.

I enjoyed reading this, but the ending fell flat to me and I kind of felt confused. Overall, a good read though and do recommend.

I wasn't expecting to enjoy this book so much but it was such a lovely read and for a contemporary novel, with a surprising twist! It was a hook to Nicola Yoon's books and I've even read more from her since this read and have enjoyed them too.

I would like to thank NetGalley and Delacorte Books for Young Readers for the opportunity to read and review this book.
I'm not even sure how to write this review because I don't think it will truly show how much I really enjoyed this book. I had heard such good things about this book and the fact that it took me so long to read it makes me sad because I wish I would have experienced it sooner. I will admit, I read The Sun Is Also A Star before I read this one. Then I realized I had to jump into this because I loved the author's writing so very much!
It's kind of impossible not to love the main character, Madeline. At first, you're sad for her because she has been locked away her whole life without every experiencing anything. Her disease makes it impossible for her to leave the house because she's allergic to the air, yep, bubble baby syndrome! I had only ever heard about this through the movie from long ago: Boy in the Plastic Bubble. So I was excited to see how anything would possibly happen for her.
When we are introduced to her new neighbor, Olly, you know right away something big is going to happen.This brooding boy who always dresses in black is definitely going to help turn Madeline's world on end. And so it did. Some may say it was way too quick, but given Madeline's life, it's not at all surprising she would attach herself to someone other than her mother and the nurse that takes care of her. I do not want to ruin anything with the plot, but let's just say Madeline gets to experience things with Olly you would never have though possible.
The author has a great writing style. I was never bored. As a matter of fact, I could not put the book down and read it in less than 24 hours. This didn't surprise me as I had read her other book in a similar time frame (just the day before!).
I loved the relationships Madeline has with her nurse. As a nurse, it made me remember all those connections I've made with patients in the past and how, many times, I have gone above and beyond to ensure they are happy. This is what Carla does for Madeline. But Carla shakes the world up a bit too much and Madeline's mother cannot have that as it threatens to harm her daughter (or so we are lead to believe). Madeline's mother was a little suffocating from the very onset of the book and this bothered me. I just felt she was always off, and my intuition was not wrong.
Overall, this is a quick read with a good plot and a fun story. I'm pretty sure I'll read anything this author publishes because it just gives me all the feels!

I thought this book was amazing! I could relate to the characters and really enjoyed the writing style.

I am cleaning my Netgalley shelf and I noticed I haven't reviewed this yet.

It has been so long since I read Everything, Everything so forgive me for not remembering the events that happened in this book but I do remember the feeling while I was reading this. This was unlike any book I read and also a very quick favorite. I remember I obsessed about this for months that I even read Flowers of Algernon even I avoided tear jerker books like the plague. All because the lead female loved it.

2 stars. Eh. This isn't all it's cracked up to be. Review to come.

Due to being a high school teacher, I often behind on reviewing. Here are my initial thoughts.

This book was so beautifully written. I loved the story and the struggles the main character goes through in order to live her life. The love story was amazing as well. I highly recommend.

I did not end up finishing this as I read other reviews that revealed the twist to the plot, and decided I was uncomfortable with the portrayal of an abusive mother.

4.5/5 While I felt like there were parts of the book that could've been better and more realistic, overall I loved this debut novel. Such a unique story and had just the right mix of all different types of relationships. I can't wait to see more from this author!

Beautifully written.
I love Nicola Yoon's style and the character's are super resonating.
There has been some complaint's about the ending and I wish it had been handled differently, but this did not detract from my overall enjoyment.

I have so many feelings about this book. There are so many surprises, but they aren't that realistic, and it seemed like I wasn't making any sense when I was trying to explain the plot of this book to a friend.

Realizing that I never sent in a review for this lovely book! Everything, Everything was and continues to be one of the most checked out books at my library. It's romance with a twist - a mystery at its hearts that makes it appeal to non-romance readers. Nicola Yoon is one of the most exciting voices in YA lit right now, and I can't wait to read what she's got in store for readers next.

*There are mild spoilers in this review*

Everything, Everything was a book I was incredibly excited to see about but there were aspects of this book that didn't work for me. For one, I didn't enjoy the insta-love (I rarely care for this trope) aspect of this book. It has worked for some and while certain aspects were cute, I wasn't as big of a fan.

The ending was rather jarring and not as well executed as I would have liked. When it came to the big reveal I felt like not giving more information about how or why it happened didn't help flesh out the characters as much. I immediately thought of Munchausen Syndrome By Proxy when it came to mind but didn't come up.
