Just when she's thinking about hightailing it back to Chicago, she gets an email from a person calling themselves Somebody/Nobody (SN for short), offering to help her navigate the wilds of Wood Valley High School.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 395
Charlotte Davis is in pieces. At 17 she's already lost more than most people do in a lifetime. But she's learned how to forget. The broken glass washes away the sorrow until there is nothing but calm. You don't have to think about your father and the river. Your best friend, who is gone forever. Or your mother, who has nothing left to give you. Every new scar hardens Charlie's heart just a little more, yet it still hurts so much. It hurts enough to not care anymore, which is sometimes what has to happen before you can find your way back from the edge.

Eden was always good at being good. Starting high school didn't change who she was. But the night her brother's best friend rapes her, Eden's world capsizes. What was once simple is now complex.

Nothing makes sense anymore, and she knows she's supposed to tell someone what happened, but she can't. So she buries it instead. And she buries the way she used to be.

It happens every year. A list is posted, and one girl from each grade is chosen as the prettiest, and another is chosen as the ugliest. Nobody knows who makes the list. It almost doesn't matter. The damage is done the minute it goes up.This is the story of eight girls, freshman to senior, "pretty" and "ugly." And it's also the story of how we see ourselves, and how other people see us, and the tangled connection of the two.

Publisher's Summary
If you could read my mind, you wouldn't be smiling.
Samantha McAllister looks just like the rest of the popular girls in her junior class. But hidden beneath the straightened hair and expertly applied makeup is a secret that her friends would never understand: Sam has purely obsessional OCD and is consumed by a stream of dark thoughts and worries that she can't turn off. Second-guessing every move, thought, and word makes daily life a struggle, and it doesn't help that her lifelong friends will turn toxic at the first sign of a wrong outfit, wrong lunch, or wrong crush. Yet Sam knows she'd be truly crazy to leave the protection of the most popular girls in school. So when Sam meets Caroline, she has to keep her new friend with a refreshing sense of humor and no style a secret, right up there with Sam's weekly visits to her psychiatrist.
Caroline introduces Sam to the Poet's Corner, a hidden room and a tight-knit group of misfits who have been ignored by the school at large. Sam is drawn to them immediately, especially a guitar-playing guy with a talent for verse, and starts to discover a whole new side of herself. Slowly she begins to feel more "normal" than she ever has as part of the popular crowd...until she finds a new reason to question her sanity and all she holds dear.

Nothing Special
Interesting premise to select a girl suffering from OCD as the protagonist. However, this is not an in-depth analysis of the crippling side effects of the disorder, yet a thinly veiled attempt to add dimension. Typical story where cool girl falls for outcast with a twist so obvious from the start, I felt manipulated.
This could have been brilliant, but it's banal and the ending is implausible; don't need a Ph.D. to decipher that. Narration was bland and did not feel connected to any of the characters.

Great story, irritating narrator
This is one book that I would have enjoyed more in print. Usually narrators bring a story to life for me, but in this case the narrator was so irritating it actually deadened the story. The Valley Girl-type affectation and the habit of stretching syllables into different pitches and sighs was incredibly distracting and the cadence and rhythm was the same no matter what emotion was being conveyed. Props, however, to the author. The story was clever and well-researched.

Great story read by a valley girl.
Great book for YA but the narrator's voice is so affected, I could hardly stand it. It was like listening to a 1980's valley girl. But the storyline was terrific.

OCD like you've never seen it!
What made the experience of listening to Every Last Word the most enjoyable?
This will be another book I suggest to #yearofya May chat and I just loved Audible's Amy Rubinate as she narrated Samantha (Sam's) grappling with OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder) from the age of 11. Sam decides to keep this secret from her friends, who are not really nice girls, and there is a slippery slope in the pecking order of their friendship. So things begin to change when one day a girl a few lockers down talks to Sam in school and as she gets to know Caroline, Sam begins to see what a true friend is. I liked how vulnerable Sam was but how strong she was when it came to swimming, confiding to her doctor in weekly sessions and trying to control her OCD's dark thoughts and obsessions. I learned so much about this disorder from this book and the author has a NOTE at the end with important information. A great read for students, teachers and guidance counselors! Highly recommended!!!
Who was your favorite character and why?
Samantha because she was so believable with her friendship with Caroline, her relationship with her doctor/therapist, her poetry, her family. I understood how important her friends were & even though they were toxic, Samantha could not talk to them about their failings and her insescurities.
What does Amy Rubinate bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
I love Amy Rubinate's voice; she was perfect for Samantha as a character who is insecure, obsessive, and as the story continues delusional and then as the story ends, her voice is one of strength and happiness.
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
What? You got a problem with obsessions?!?
