Adrift after her sister Bailey's sudden death, Lennie finds herself torn between quiet, seductive Toby—Bailey's boyfriend who shares her grief—and Joe, the new boy in town who bursts with life and musical genius. Each offers Lennie something she desperately needs... though she knows if the two of them collide her whole world will explode. Join Lennie on this heartbreaking and hilarious journey of profound sorrow and mad love, as she makes colossal mistakes and colossal discoveries, as she traipses through band rooms and forest bedrooms and ultimately right into your heart. As much a celebration of love as a poignant portrait of loss, Lennie's struggle to sort her own melody out of the noise around her is always honest, often uproarious, and absolutely unforgettable.Rating Of Books The Sky Is Everywhere

Truthfully this really isn't even a review. IT's more of a list of questions and comments. SO if you actually like the book. I recommend turning away. Cause this is sort of a hate review. HATE/STRONGLY DISLIKE 1) Screwed up love triangle.2) Screwed up characters3) Screwed up plot4) I know that the character was grieving. But really? 5) Really?6) Setting ACTUALLY LIKE 1) Writing. It was really good and beautiful2) Dead sister OKAY 1) Concept (author maybe pulled it off)See that was my hate list.4 stars The sky is everywhere, it begins at your feet. The Sky is Everywhere by Jandy Nelson. YA book #2 in 2016. Jandy Nelson has this special writing style. Its kind of odd (in the best way) and beautifully poetic. Her characters are a little out there and her stories are like nothing Ive ever read before. The Sky is Everywhere is a powerful story of a young woman dealing with grief the best way she knows how. grief is a housewhere the chairshave forgotten how to hold usthe mirrors how
One of the funniest, most beautiful and most inspiring stories Ive ever read about coping with grief and falling in love, about discovering oneself, strengthening the bond of friendship and sisterhood, and realizing who your genuine family is. I now clearly understand why so many of my friends have fallen in love with this book. I undeniably have as I have gone through all the symptoms of falling madly in love with a book.♣ Inability to put the book down.♣ Grinning like a buffoon and snorting at
I'm so glad this is over for so many reasons. I'm also really confused and disappointed. This was such a let-down, especially after reading I'll give You the Sun, which was an immensely rich and beautiful book. I don't understand how those two books can be so different, how one can be so impressive and the other one just weak. Anyway, I'm glad I read I'll give You the Sun first, otherwise I would have never picked it up, as this was the biggest disappointment. Here's why:- I couldn't connect
Book 22/100 for 20152.5/5This book really didn't do anything for me. I was expecting great things because of the incredible hype surrounding the book, but I was bored throughout. I felt like the romance between Joe and Lennie was WAY too sudden (He just randomly shows up at her house one day and then begins to invite himself into the house every morning with croissants? Also, they kiss and then a few days later they are in love?) and her ongoing crisis between picking Toby or Joe made me want to
Sometimes you must lose everything to find yourself. Jandy Nelsons debut novel The Sky is Everywhere is an absolute must read for YA readers. I breezed through this book in one sitting, and Im still going over in my heart and in my mind all the emotions this book made me feel about the complexities of grief and loss. Surprisingly enough, there were moments this book had me laughing out loud literally guffawing and Im not one prone to bursting out in hysterics, but Lennies analogies and mental
