"What a terrible feeling to love someone and not be able to help them"
All The Bright Places is written by Jennifer Niven who is an American author born in North Carolina. Jennifer's writings make people say WOW !

From Author's Site:

Theodore Finch is fascinated by death. Every day he thinks of ways he might die, but every day he also searches for—and manages to find—something to keep him here, and alive, and awake.

Violet Markey lives for the future, counting the days until graduation, when she can escape her small Indiana town and her aching grief in the wake of her sister's death.

Review

Violet and Finch meet at the ledge of bell tower where they both were planning to end their lives but instead things took a turn and they both try to save each other. Finch and Violet never really talked before this but what happens at the bell tower leads them to become more visible in each others life.

Their awkward meeting turns their non-existent relationship into what the readers would like to call an 'attachment' and when Finch pairs up with Violet for a class project they start to share road trips to discover the wonders. Finch and Violet starts enjoying each other's company.

Finch is no more a freak whenever he's with Violet and Violet is her true self whenever she's around Finch. But as both the characters start to share pain, happiness, fears, Violet's garden grows greener but on the contrary Finch's wings become weaker.

This book will give you the exact heartache you feel when you lose what's important to you. The book explains how an extra ordinary connection of two souls remain alive even after not being physically together.

Looking for Alaska Book Review

- The obsession of Miles with last words made me believe that a person's last words do have some kind of meaning. Alaska Young, always being moody, self-destructive, rebellious, reckless somehow finding distractions from her inner struggles & always looking for a way out of the labyrinth. Her death was tragic indeed. She left many mysteries behind. - The love that Miles had for Alaska made it more worse for him to forget that he let her go alone that night, drunk & messed up. Alaska truly didn't find her way out of the labyrinth but she did write it 'Straight & fast'. 'If people were rain, I was drizzle & she was a hurricane' - John Green ❤
