Welcome to the backlog of reviews I’m going to try to start churning out now that I’m back from vacation! Hopefully at least one a day until I’m caught up (and, by then, I’ll have more since I doubt I’ll stop reading any time soon…) First up is All the Bright Places, a YA book which, according to Google, is “The Fault in Our Stars meets Eleanor and Park.” I’m going to disagree on that. I think it wants to be, it tries to be, but it’s just not. Those are two books that I loved because they had heart and humor and a stark realness that just cut through you in kind of unexpected ways. Do I think that Niven’s has the potential to be a John Green or a Rainbow Rowell? Maybe, but this book just isn’t it.
