We all Looked up by Tommy Wallach is a story about how humanity responds to what may be the end of the world. It follows the lives of four teenagers, the narration skipping between them. Peter is the golden boy, always following the rules, going to Stanford on a sports scholarship. Eliza was once a nice quiet girl, before Peter kissed her in her photo lab... more on that later. Anita is a scholar, always trying to live up to her parents standards and going crazy with the pressure while secretly wanting to be a signer. Andy is a stoner, a loser, but an okay guy. 
 We follow them as the news is announced that there's a 66.6% possibility that the world is going to be hit by an asteroid, killing everyone on the planet. Alliances and enemies are made, attitudes are changed, and philosophies are developed. 
 I love these kinds of books, because I love thinking about what would happen if this were to happen. In the days of climate change, and ever approaching extinction, I find comfort and understanding in pre-dystopian fiction. 
 What I didn't love about this book.... Peter, years ago, kisses Eliza and ruins her life. His girlfriend finds out about the kiss, and wages war on her. Eliza is hated by almost everyone, and is so pressured and loathed that she changes everything she is, and everything she stands for. This is believable... high school girls are mean. What I had issue with was that Eliza carries a torch for Peter, even though he never stands up for her. At any time he could have stood up and said, hey, I kissed her, or hey, leave her alone. He doesn't, though, and this makes me dislike him. 
 I think that, other than the ending, was my biggest issue with this book. I realized about 30 pages out from the ending that the author had three options. 1. The meteor could hit, and that's it. Along the lines of Seeking a Friend for the End of the Universe. 2. The meteor could pass them by, and we can follow the aftermath. 3. She could leave it open ended. 
 I did not want her to leave it open ended. I wanted an ending, I wanted to know what happened, I wanted our characters to watch as the ground below them crumbled, or to sigh collectively as they all lived. I don't think it's wrong to want an ending. 
 There were a few lulls in the plot, some times where I felt myself wanting to skim, but overall the pacing was decent. I enjoyed the characters, and they were easy to distinguish from each other. Overall, I suppose I'd recommend it to anyone who likes this sort of book. 4 out 5 stars.
