I really got into this book as I was reading. I like the way that the actual images Evan finds are included in the text, as it made what was happening seem even more creepy and disturbing. The suspense builds well, as it's not clear how much is real and how much is Evan's paranoia. As much as I got sucked into the story and had trouble putting it down , I was ultimately disappointed with the ending. It felt rushed and unlikely to me. There aren't any particular holes in the conclusion other than some of the characters' behavior simply not making sense, but it bothers me when I don't understand characters' motivation. I felt that "Every You, Every Me" was worth reading due to the enjoyment I got from the first 75%, but I walked away with a bad feeling about it.

It's a good experiment, but a deeply unpleasing one for me, I couldn't stop reading but I also was a bit terrified. Wish me luck sleeping tonight

Tbh, I'm disappointed. I knew it wouldn't be fantastic, but the plot sounded interesting and I thought I'd enjoy it well enough, but unfortunately it was just... bad.

  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? No
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

This book was so great. The idea and the way it was written was so nice. I love how there were some sentences (thoughts) crossed out because it shows that the main character didn't speak his mind often and was careful and thoughtful with his words and thoughts. It sends a powerful message on the characters personality and to the readers. I liked it a lot, the idea of someone sending him pictures and him having to find out who it was.

I couldn't finish it. I didn't like the setup. The idea is there, but it isn't for me.

This was a very quick read. It took about four or five hours to read and I was happy about it. It took me a while to decipher how I felt about the book, and I'm still a little hazy on it, but I'm leaning more towards negative. I don't normally give books one or two stars, and I might give this a 2.5 if I had the option.
It was a little difficult to get through, all the strikethroughs did not appeal to me at all. Wintergirls did it too (a great book) but sparingly compared to this book. Something in my brain just wanted to skip over it but fought the urge. The other reviews about this story being very teen angsty got it right on the ball. It was too much and my head hurts after all the 'arghs' and sentences that struggled to make sense. Like I said, glad it was a quick read. Some psychological elements of the story were interesting, most of it was lacking.
