Amazon Summary:
John Green's The Fault in Our Stars meets Rainbow Rowell's Eleanor & Park in this darkly funny novel from the critically acclaimed author of The Beginning of Everything.
Up until his diagnosis, Lane lived a fairly predictable life. But when he finds himself at a tuberculosis sanatorium called Latham House, he discovers an insular world with paradoxical rules, med sensors, and an eccentric yet utterly compelling confidante named Sadie—and life as Lane knows it will never be the same.
Robyn Schneider's Extraordinary Means is a heart-wrenching yet ultimately hopeful story about the miracles of first love and second chances.
Book Review:
Hands down, my favourite book of the summer. This endearing tale of two thriving tuberculosis teens definitely puts the “awwww” in astounding. In this story, Teen Latham House (a tuberculosis sanatorium) patients Sadie and Lane explore the wonders of taking a path less travelled. This book had my undivided attention all the way through and overall was wonderfully written; Chapters not too long, not too short, characters of all personalities, and a plotline that will warm your heart.
No doubt, I would recommend this book to anyone looking for a good novel to read the night away. Robyn Schneider did a fantastic job at fully capturing the heart and soul feelings of these two very strong characters. Overall, I would rate this book a 4 out of 5 stars because I did really enjoy the story but would have loved to known a bit more background on Sadie… but despite that I really loved reading this book; and kudos to Robyn on a written masterpiece. Wonderful job! “Life goes on, until it doesn’t.”~ Robyn Schneider, Extraordinary Means~ 2015
