Everything Everything

Everything Everything by Nicola Yoon, 310 pages

"The story of a teenage girl who's literally allergic to the outside world. When a new family moves in next door, she begins a complicated romance that challenges everything she's ever known. The narrative unfolds via vignettes, diary entries, texts, charts, lists, illustrations, and more." This book is amazing and surprising.  I don’t want to give any spoilers, but the end was not at all what I would have expected.  I was completely taken by surprise.  I would give this to any teen that likes realistic fiction.
