The sky is everywhere was a stunning, heart breaking book from the fabulous Jandy Nelson. Lennon "Lennie" is going through a period of heartbreak when her sister Bailey suddenly does from a heart attack. She expresses her emotions in poems that she leaves everywhere and buries or where she inscribes them on trees. Nelson accurately shows how someone might act in this situation. Lennie feels like no one else feels her pain, but then she comes to realize that her uncle and grandmother both feel the same way. She is also caught in a love triangle between Baileys boyfriend and a new boy from school.... Which turns out to be messy, but still beautiful. I loved it. It's one of my favorite books of all time.
Good Points
- the emotions felt real and heart felt
-the poems were a nice touch
- I loved how Lennie really molded and changed
