Review of You Are The Everything
Review (5 Stars): You Are The Everything is an amazing story about living after experiencing a traumatic event. Elyse and Josh were sitting in the back row of their school flight back home from Paris when their plane crashed, leaving them the sole survivors. From this moment on, Elyse and Josh share an unbreakable bond but their experience has left scars that they have to work through and Elyse is having a hard time living when everyone she knew perished on that tragic flight.
This is a beautifully written story that kept me up half the night reading. Elyse always had a crush on Josh but this tragedy brought them together in ways that she had never imagined. She couldn’t grieve for the people that she had lost including her best friend, Kath and she had a hard time living as people kept asking her why she was one of the lucky ones to survive. This book is about living and loss and how dealing with the aftermath takes its toll on the survivors when they are left to pick up the pieces. This is a great book that everyone should read and Elyse’s story will stay with you well after the last page.
