All the Bright Places

NOW A NETFLIX FILM, STARRING ELLE FANNING AND JUSTICE SMITH!

The New York Times bestselling love story about two teens who find each other while standing on the edge.


Theodore Finch
is fascinated by death. Every day he thinks of ways he might kill himself, but every day he also searches for—and manages to find—something to keep him here, and alive, and awake.

Violet Markey lives for the future, counting the days until graduation, when she can escape her small Indiana town and her aching grief in the wake of her sister’s recent death.
 
When Finch and Violet meet on the ledge of the bell tower at school—six stories above the ground— it’s unclear who saves whom. Soon it’s only with Violet that Finch can be himself. And it’s only with Finch that Violet can forget to count away the days and start living them. But as Violet’s world grows, Finch’s begins to shrink. . . .

This book kinda wrecked me. I put off finishing it because I saw what was going to happen and just couldn't face it. But I finished and after an ugly cry, I can say I loved it.

This book is mainly of the genre YA, with tid-bits of romance and contemporary. It is similar to THE FAULT IN OUR STARS. It's story of a girl who learns to live from a boy who wants to die.

The plot is good but honestly saying there were some scenes where there was too much of description which I think, wasn't needed. I liked the book overall but I got bored and skipped pages. There's a shocking plot twists at the end which will break your heart.

I recommend this book to everyone who is/was in depression, this book will remind you of what it feels like to be alive.

It made my heart so heavy, I won't be surprised if I drown in the beautifully tragic world of violet and finch.
