Risk everything.... for love
From The #1 New York Bestselling Author, Nicola Yoon, comes a heartfelt story with an ending you'd never expected.
My disease is as rare as it is famous. Basically, I m allergic to the world.I don t leave my house, have not left my house in seventeen years. The only people I ever see are my mom and my nurse, Carla.
But then one day, a moving truck arrives next door. I look out my window, and I see him. He's tall, lean and wearing all black black T-shirt, black jeans, black sneakers, and a black knit cap that covers his hair completely. He catches me looking and stares at me. I stare right back. His name is Olly.
Maybe we can t predict the future, but we can predict some things. For example, I am certainly going to fall in love with Olly. It s almost certainly going to be a disaster.

When I read this book, I was thinking, "This is such an interesting story, I'd love to see it on the big screen." And of course, Hollywood finally decided to adapt this book into a movie.
Amandla Stenberg, plays a girl named Maddie who has a disease called SCID (Severe Combined Immunodeficiency). Maddie has never left her house, because of her condition. Until Olly, played by Nick Robinson, moves right next to Maddie's house. From knowing each other through emails, their relationship develops as well as Maddie's journey.
With the direction from Stella Meghie, Everything, Everything has already got 6.6 stars on IMDb with 254 reviews and 42% on Rotten Tomatoes with 52 reviews. Despite the "okay" ratings and reviews, I still want to see the movie before I have my own opinion. I'm excited to see how the story is being brought to the screen.
