The main character is a girl who is said to have a disease that stops her from being able to go anywhere outside her home. She lives with her mother, after her father and brother died in a car crash. She is content until the new neighbors move in..with a boy her age who captures her attention. His name is Olly. And he will most definitely change her life in the craziest way possible.
So much happens!! The plot twist was pretty predictable but the writing makes it very easy to become invested. There were a few cringey bits, but overall it was decent! Extra points for a pretty cover:)
it mystified me from the get-go that this girl-in-a-bubble had not googled her own condition and that, although written as a 17 yo acts very much like a 14 yo. I assumed, YA book and all, it was for sex - the main character would have sex and the publisher didn't want a sh*t storm. anyhow - the entire plot was unrealistic so I felt cheated to find out that of course: this is a made-up condition and the mother is holding her hostage. SO stupid. but enjoyable to dissect the stupidity. oh, and now it's a movie
