Reviews
Florence - Nottingham Girls High School - 2019
I thought that this book was an amazing book idea that was executed perfectly however I felt that I did not connect with the character Dan at all. He was a clever boy and I thought he should have had something larger happen to him. I really enjoyed learning about Alex’s OCD.
Saanvi - Nottingham Girls High School - 2019
I enjoyed the book as it was quite descriptive and described each characters' feelings. The setting was described well and I felt like I was actually there. But the book was slightly bit rushed at the end, I feel. I liked the book because it could be a real story and is has relatable dilemmas in it.
Grace - Outwood Academy Kirkby - 2019
I really liked this book. It shows that people always don't know the reason for why someone is doing something, whether its because of problems at home or a mental disorder. I recommend this to anyone looking for a story with a good ending.
Narisse - Nottingham Girls High School - 2019
I really enjoyed how I you could feel the characters in this book, you really felt you were there and you were watching. Some bits of the plot just seemed to trail off but the overall book had a good effect.
Amina - Nottingham Girls High School - 2019
I enjoyed the book and liked how the story was shown from two points of view. I also liked the story line and would recommend the book to someone, although I feel that the ending was a bit rushed.
Tyler - Outwood Academy Kirkby - 2019
This was one of those few books that I would enjoy reading again. This book isn't just a excellent read, it shows how some people aren't as lucky as others, and that the smallest of problems can become larger just by bullying. Now I know after learning the backstory and inspiration for this book was based on one of the authors friends I can understand how hard it truly is for the characters in the book with OCD and other problems. I would definitely recommend this book to all ages.
Nitya - Nottingham Girls High School - 2019
I think all the things that could go wrong was a really interesting book, and the thing about it was that it could happen to anyone in real life. Seeing these two boys with these different problems and how they managed them was what defined their characters, which is another thing that really stood out as well. I also liked seeing both sides of the story, as it helped me to understand a bit more.
Lottie - Nottingham Girls High School - 2019
I really enjoyed this book but it went on and on! It would have been better as a short story rather than saying the same thing again and again.
Beth - Nottingham Girls High School - 2019
This was a great book because of the message it had about bullying and how it is a real problem that is increasing all the time.
Anika - Nottingham Girls High School - 2019
This is a very brilliant book that shows the story from the perspective of both the main characters. It is really emotional and easy to follow with a beautiful ending. I really liked it.
Paris - Outwood Academy Kirkby - 2019
'All the things that could go wrong' is a brilliant book! Alex is struggling and Dan is angry his brother was taken away. The boys mums arrange to finish a raft Ben and Dan have started. I would definitely recommend it to anyone.
