All The Bright Places

All The Bright Places by Jennifer Niven, 388 pages


Violet Markey, whose older sister died in a car crash the previous year and Theodore Finch, who has been known as “Freak” to most of the school seem to have very little in common.  But a chance encounter on the school’s bell tower marks the beginning of, at the very least, a cautious friendship.  The two of them are partners on a history assignment and end up traveling through Indiana to see some amazing sights.  Finch and Violet mostly seem good for each other.  Violet starts riding in cars again and Finch hasn’t had one of his blackout sessions for months.  However, their relationship may not be enough to hold them together.  This is a good book dealing with grief.  Anyone who has ever lost a loved one or simply likes teen “issue” books will want to read this story.
