Review: Everything, Everything by Nicola Yoon Format (That I Read It): Book Summary: Madeline Whittier is allergic to the outside world. So allergic, in fact, that she has never left the house in all of her seventeen years. But when Olly moves in next door and wants to talk to Maddie, tiny holes start to appear in the protective bubble her mother has built around her. Olly writes his IM address on a piece of paper, shows it at her window, and suddenly, a door opens. But does Maddie dare to step outside her comfort zone?

Discussion: All Our Tragic Loss Yesterday when I woke up I saw that Orlando was trending and I hoped beyond hope that it would be something good but I was tragically mistaken. Reading the headlines of the worst mass shooting in U.S. history struck me. I had planned to post an art project today that I've been working on but it doesn't seem right to. My regular posting will resume Wednesday but for now, I just want to discuss these tragic few days. Friday I had some family issues and I was having a really tough day and then I saw this: #PrayforChristina. I was very confused so I looked it up and was utterly shocked to see that Christina Grimmie (YouTuber and Voice contestant) was shot while signing autographs for fans. My heart hurt and I hoped and prayed for her to be okay. Then sadly the next day it was released publicly that she had passed away. I couldn't believe it. One, she was only 22 years old.
