mihikam 's review for:
All The Things We Never Said
by Yasmin Rahman
5 stars, aka "One of my favorites"
When I checked this book out from the library, I don't remember what I was looking for, but I believe it was something along the lines of depressing themes like suicide and maybe even a little bit of thriller. The inside cover specifically said "As their assigned date of termination [when they're supposed to commit suicide] draws nearer and MementoMori [a shady suicide website] continues to manipulate them, the girls will have to rely on each other to survive." That last part especially drew me in, but really I want to tell anyone who's planning on reading this that it's less about the shady website itself and more of the struggles girls like the ones featured in this book are forced through . This book touched down on themes like acceptance, self-confidence, "fitting in", and especially love . All the characters represented so many people at once, yet were super relatable in at least one aspect and incredibly made. This was one of the most emotional, deep, and thoughtful books I've read in a while, and I swear I cried for Olivia while reading.
High recommendation to mature fifth graders to ninth or tenth grade.
