SO. FREAKING. BEAUTIFUL. 
 This is the story of Maddy and Olly. It will make you laugh. It will make you cry. It will break your heart in the most beautiful way possible and then fix it by the very last page. 
 Maddy is a hilarious, intelligent and wonderful character. She has SCID, a very rare immunodeficiency disorder, and has not left her house in 17 years. Everything in the outside world is a possible threat. Olly is a remarkable and lovable character that had me swooning from the first description of him. He comes from an unstable family background, but is strong and fiercely protective. When he and Maddy meet, their worlds collide and both of their lives change irrevocably. 
 Nicola Yoon's writing is simply beautiful. The cartoons and drawings in this book created the perfect unique element that made Maddy's character shine even more. This story was executed flawlessly. It was a quick and thought-provoking read that is definitely in my Top 5 reads of this year. There's a plot twist at the end that had be completely blindsided- that's what I mean when I say this author's writing was brilliant. The moment that this thing was revealed it was like the fitting of puzzle pieces and I just had this moment of "wHAT JUST HAPPENED-omg-are yOU SERIOUS?!!-wait omg MADDY-evERYTHING makes sense now!!!-OMG OLLY!!!!" 
 Yea. 
 This story is about the power of love and what it can drive a person to do, and how life is meant to be lived and not just experienced. It's gorgeous and hilarious and heart-wrenching. Do yourself a favor and READ. THIS. BOOK.
