A really good read - refreshing to find a historical novel about a disabled character where the character is allowed to be held back by her disability at times, but with assistance and accomodation able to participate fully in the events of the book. 
The relationships between the four Musketeers is wonderful to read - they are all distinct personalities and I enjoyed that the girls bonds and friendships is a focus and considered the most important relationship in the book.

C'era un libro che ho letto da ragazzina, si intitolava "voglio un vestito rosa" o una cosa del genere. Lo ricordo ancora con piacere, nonostante sia a oggi convita che non fosse un granché e che avesse dei seri problemi, ma anche delle cose interessanti.
Ecco, leggendo "One for All" ho avuto la stessa sensazione e sono abbastanza convinta che se fossi stata ancora la ragazzina di allora probabilmente lo avrei amato. Invece il colpo di scena intuito a pagina due perché ormai abbiamo letto troppi libri per farci fregare.

Credo che il libro abbia anche alcuni difetti oggettivi (la fine è un po' troppo rapida, la storia della malattia della protagonista un po' troppo esagerata) mentre altri secondo me sono cose su cui puoi passare sopra se sei ragazzina (l'ambientazione) apprezzando il resto (donne moschettiere, amicizie femminili, le lelle!).

interesting story, liked the POTS rep as someone who may or may not have this illness on top of the other chronic ones... the plot twist wasn't that surprising and the story just sounded too close to Barbie and the three musketeers, like a LOT, still a good enough YA story though. finished it in 4 to 5 hours only. also quite predictable and the characters just felt distant to me... couldn't relate to anyone but the MC a little...
