I just finished this book and I am completely in love with it. The writing, the characters, the plot, everything is perfect. That's why today it's part of my never-ending booknotes. I love its quotes.
“I know the expression love bloomed is metaphorical, but in my heart in this moment, there is one badass flower, captured in time-lapse photography, going from bud to wild radiant blossom in ten seconds flat.”“Remember how it was when we kissed? Armfuls and armfuls of light thrown right at us. A rope dropping down from the sky. How can the word love and the word life even fit in the mouth?”“According to all the experts, it's time for me to talk about what I'm going through... I can't. I'd need a new alphabet, one made of falling, of tectonic plates shifting, of the deep devouring dark.”
THE BOOK
Summary.
Seventeen-year-old
Lennie Walker, bookworm and band geek, plays second clarinet and spends
her time tucked safely and happily in the shadow of her fiery older
sister, Bailey. But when Bailey dies abruptly, Lennie is catapulted to
center stage of her own life - and, despite her nonexistent history with
boys, suddenly finds herself struggling to balance two. Toby was
Bailey's boyfriend; his grief mirrors Lennie's own. Joe is the new boy
in town, a transplant from Paris whose nearly magical grin is matched
only by his musical talent. For Lennie, they're the sun and the moon;
one boy takes her out of her sorrow, the other comforts her in it. But
just like their celestial counterparts, they can't collide without the
whole wide world exploding.
Oh wow, those quotes are absolutely amazing, Lis!!
