All the Bright Places - Jennifer Niven (Book Review)

Title: All the Bright Places
Author: Jennifer Niven
Publisher: Penguin Books 2015
Pages: 378

Short Summary:
Finch meets Violet at the Bell Tower at school, they were both about to jump off the building. But they do not. Both Theodore Finch and Violet Markey have reasons for this. (Don't wanna spoil anything.) Finch picks Violet to be his project partner in U.S. Geography. They keep wandering around Indiana for their project. As they spend those days together, they fall for each other more and more each day.
(More exciting things happen, but again, I don't wanna spoil anything.)

Characters I liked/disliked:
- Finch: He's probably handsome, and really tall. He gave me the idea of writing good words in post-its and sticking them on the wall, and ripping bad words I write.
- Violet: In my opinion, she can be careless at times, but she is still a great character, with a great way of writing. Especially the fact that she and I both have the gift of writing.
- Roamer: For sure, everyone who read this book probably disliked this character because of the way he treats Finch. I mean, come on, everyone hates bullies.
- Finch's Dad: I kind of disliked this one. Being careless of his children, seeing them only once a week. Of course, it would be hard for his kids to see him for a few hours a week.
- Violet's Parents: They could've gave Finch another chance. I think at one moment they were too hard on Violet, but most of the time, they would be handling her quietly.

Stars: Definitely FIVE.
Why: The book is just incredible and amazing. I only read it in four days because of how I got into it quickly. I would definitely recommend this book to all people.
