Summary: Cormier never fails to capture our attention
Comment: There are only a few Robert Cormier books I haven't read, and this one is no exception to their perpetual quality. Every single one, although dealing with similar topics, has been unique in its own way, so the reader can never get tired of Cormier's novels. His books also still remain extremely surprising and unpredictable. As I said, I have read many of RC's novels and couldn't even come close to forseeing what would happen in this one. Cormier never wastes characters, but has all of them that he mentions play a critical role in the story. "We All Fall Down" provides a melancholy depiction of the sometimes randomness of love, and the uncertainty of adolecense. This one, as all of Cormier's books, is hard to put down, and will keep you burning the midnight oil if you're a night reader like me.

Summary: The Avenger has seen it all...
Comment: Thrilling, chilling and verbose; three words to describe the emotional path Cormier takes you through each time you turn the page. "We All Fall Down" is one of Cormier's most impressive works and clearly demonstrates a perfect thriller in my eyes.

Robert Cormier's descriptive paragraphs and wording not only absorb the reader, but compel them to unravel the book even further. It is the story of the Avenger, Buddy and Jane, and follows the effects a random act of violence has on the three.

"We All Fall Down" is a rather disturbing novel, but at the same time, enjoyable. This book illustrates fate and how a slight twist of it can alter lives forever.

Summary: Cormier does it again
Comment: Much like the Chocolate War, We All Fall Down deals with everyday problems teens' face in school, home, and in their personal lives. I loved how Cormier made this book accessible to teens but to adults as well. Abuse of alcohol, lies, the thought of death, and the deconstructing of family are issues that this book deals with. Cormier lets the reader see how Jane and other characters deal with these issues by writing from more than one point of view. For example, the reader can see how Jane copes with the fact her sister Karen is in a coma and might not wake up. Not only does this allow teenagers to relate to these feelings and emotions; it also connects to adults as well. They were once teenagers and have gone through the same situations as Jane, Karen, and Buddy. By reading this, adults can get a sense of what life is like for teens today and understand the reasons why teens do the things they do. It is the issues the book discusses and how the characters cope with their problems that makes this book so important to society today.
