Book Review | All the Bright Places by Jennifer Niven

All the Bright Places by Jennifer Niven
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

*Spoiler Alert

The book is incredible! Violet and Finch are amazing characters, and I love the way the story flowed from their meeting, to their friendship, to their love story, while we learned about each of them as individuals, each with their own silent struggle.

I had a feeling it was going to end the way it did, and I hated that, but I understand it was a huge part of the entire story line. The fact that his family didn't see it coming, nor where they even worried when he faded out again really pissed me off. I wonder, "Are there really people out there who just don't see this, of their family and friends who are struggling?! How could they not?" And I wonder why the people suffering feel they have to cope alone, and are too ashamed to admit they have a problem and ask for help.

But the story of their wandering, and what it meant to Violet at the end, was remarkable. This is a book that's going to stay with me for a long time.

2015 Reading Campaign | Final Quarter Check-in

Hello Readers! Can you believe it's September already?! This year is just flying by. Since it's the start of the final quarter of 2015, I thought it would be a good time to check in with the Reading Campaign.

Unfortunately, I got way behind in my reading this summer, and I'm two books behind schedule. But, I'm pulling myself out of my reading rut, and I'm determined to catch up. I'm currently half-way through A Charming Fatality by Tonya Kappes. Before that, I took a day to read the min novelette in the series, A Charming Christmas. I will be caught up within the next day or so thanks to this wonderful series that I love so much! Then, it's on to other books that have been piling up on my Kindle.

          

I'll also be participating in this month's Indie YA Wolves Book Club. You can sign up to join us if you haven't already. We're discussing this month's selection on September 26.

How is your 2015 Reading Campaign going? Let's share our experiences in the comments.

There is still plenty of time to hop on board. See you in December!
