I adored this book! I've had it on my shelf to read for several years and finally got around to reading it. So glad I did.

It's young adult, but it isn't. It deals with complicated issues and while the two main characters are teenagers, everything happening around them is drama. Adult drama. We have some heavy themes here with Jude and Noah. Death. Discovering your sexuality. Addiction. Infidelity. Ghosts. And wrestling with your own demons. You have peer pressure, teen angst, and whole host of bad decisions.

I can't say enough about how much I liked this book. Give it a read. Can't wait to hear what you think. 4.5 stars. If I keep thinking about it, I might bump it up to a rare 5 star read.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

Omg, this book. Just...READ IT! All the feels. ALL...THE...FEELS.

Jandy Nelson, you are pretty much the only reason I still read contemporary teen fiction. I wish I had had you 20 years ago. Thank you!

A good book about young love. A great book about family and art. As the narrative alternates back and forth between the perspectives of twins Noah and Jude, I found myself often getting bored with the Noah sections, probably because those sections were heavier into the young love, which is an aspect of YA lit I'm not as interested in (because I don't have feelings and never was young and in love). The Jude sections do a much better job of balancing the passions of young love with the devotion to family (both living and dead) and the need to produce art that reflects that passion and devotion.

Wow. Masterful, beautiful, delightful, wonderful. And also tough and sad and heartwrenching. What a book. It's not quite anything else I've ever read. It was rich and fantastical and whimsical and intense. The characters, their voices, the story, their growth, the unfurling of the plot...enthralling. Well-deserving of every praise that has been heaped upon it.

Wow.
