Diagnosed with a rare disease, Madeline lives in her home and only her home to protect her from everything because everything will make her sick. The only people she ever sees are her nurse, Carla and her mom, who is also her doctor. Then one day, a moving truck shows up across the street and she falls in love. Olly is tall, dark and handsome, and falling in love with Olly dramatically changes her life. She will risk everything, including her life, to be with him.
Everything, Everything is a dynamic story of self discovery and the power of love, both good and bad. Maddy and Olly are well developed characters with authentic voices and complex issues that mirror much of what teens feel and experience. Tragic, yet resilient, these young people forge forward, true to who they are, supportive of one another even as they discover truths that are increasingly difficult and painful.
Love, love, love this story and the end was not only completely surprising, but perfectly matched to essence of the book.
