Book Review: Everything Everything

Title: Everything Everything
Author: Nicola Yoon
Rating: 4.5 out of 5
Genre: YA realistic fiction/ romance
Reviewer: Em



Everything Everything. This amazing book's main character is Madeline, or Maddy, Whittier. She has a rare condition that keeps her inside all her life, because she will die if she comes in contact with the world. When a boy her age, Olly, moves in next door, her whole world changes for good.

I really loved this book. It was my second favorite book for several months until recently (now it's my 3rd!). Even though this book only has a couple of characters, it makes them have so much depth that it completely makes up for it. The author really captures what I would think a girl stuck in her house her whole life would feel. This book has humor, sadness, and parts that will give you major anxiety, besides the beautiful illustrations in the novel, of course.

This book was definitely not what I was expecting. I had thought it would be a great read, sure, but I did not expect that I would enjoy it so much that I'd sit at a table and read it for hours, finishing it in one day. This novel was completely enchanting and jaw-dropping. If you're ready to find you new favorite book, search no longer. You have reached your destination.

This book is easy to fall in love with. I mean, with deep and charming characters with a good plot, how could it not? I felt it was easy to slip into the shoes of each of the characters and see things from their perspective. You never got bored of it. It gives you romance, risk, and a hint of mystery that just completes the book. Be smart, and pick it up from your local library. You won't regret it, guaranteed.

Quotes: The Nightingale

I realized that, over a year ago, I wrote a post called "Quotes: Audacity" , and that this post did really well (it's actually Reading is Inevitable's most read post!), and yet I never wrote another post of quotes from a book. I liked writing that post, too. I like sharing quotes I like from books. That's why I started doing it on our bookstagram page . So why did I never write another one of these "quote blog posts"? I don't know. But I intend to write at least another one. And that's why I'm here today. Well, there's that, and then there's also the amazing book that is The Nightingale.  If you've read some of my recent blog posts or have poked around a bit, you would know that exactly a month ago I published my book review on The Nightingale , in which I explained my love for it and why you should read it yourself. And while I actually have another post in the works on that book because it definitely deserves more than on...

How to Cure a Reading Slump

When I got out of school this summer, I was excited for a lot of things. One of the things that I was the most excited for was getting the opportunity to read more often. I have a lot of books that I want to read and the thought that I would (hopefully) get to read more of them was thrilling. Only, there was one problem: I wasn't in the mood for reading. We all have these times. They're awful. During these periods of times known to us as "reading slumps", we usually experience a lack of motivation or desire to read. You might find yourself picking up your book, thinking about how much fun you're going to have, and then - bam! - after a few words you feel bored to tears.  I don't know about you, but I absolutely hate it when this happens. So, after quite some time of dealing with this problem, I tested out a few solutions to "curing" a reading slump. Check them out below.

Would You Rather Book Tag

Hello everyone! So, this is my first book tag (yay!). I actually wasn't personally tagged, but I happened to find this tag on two of my favorite book blogs ( Honest Book Talk and Leslie's Library ), and both of them said that they tag anyone who would like to do it, so here I am! This looks like a really fun tag and I'm glad for this one to be my first one! Without further ado, let's begin!

Book Review: Bud, Not Buddy

Title:  Bud, Not Buddy Author:  Christopher Paul Curtis Genre:  Historical Fiction/Drama Rating: 3 out of 5 Reviewer:  Julia When I read the first few pages of this book, I had to hold back a moan. The text in the book was much larger than I was used to. It also appeared to be too easy to read, and I was able to breeze through the first few chapters quite quickly. The plan was to read it within a week or so and then to ditch it so that I could move on to another book. I kept this attitude for the first few parts. And then-- wooop, zoop, sloop!-- it changed.
