I think it was better than I was expecting based off what I had heard about it. It’s definitely not the worst book I’ve read and I read it in two sittings so.

God. This book.

This book is my Jovian-Plutonian gravitational effect. I feel so heavy and as light as air at the same time. I am jealous of the person I was before reading this, but only because she gets to read this lovely, lovely book for the first time.

Commendations?
A billion. But here are the ones that most stood out to me:

When Mr Embryo was written as Mr Embry in Violet's perspective, I felt my heart sink. I felt that missing piece like I was also missing Finch.

Amanda in Life is Life. Enough said.


I watched the film before reading this book. I thought it was a good film until I saw the reviews and realised everyone had preferred the book. That's what made me pick it up, and I am so grateful I did.

This book offers a depth of emotion like no other. I am only sorry I am unable to describe the emotions swirling inside of me well enough for them to be as tangible as they are for me.

Finding out Germ magazine is real, finding out some of the places written in the book are real, makes me want to fly out and visit them.

Before I die, I want to visit All The Bright Places. Experience is Life.
