Seventeen-year-old Lennie Walker 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 centre 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, with a nearly magical grin. One boy takes Lennie out of her sorrow, the other comforts her in it. But the two can't collide without Lennie's world exploding.
I loved this book. The feelings of pain, despair, and guilt at the lost of a loved one are so beautifully portrait, and easy to undertand. This book is very well written, almost as if it were poetry. It portraits the feelings of falling in love with excuisite detail, in a way that makes you feel like flying, like the sky is really everywhere. I also adored the way that nature, the forest, the river, the sky, seemed like main characters that formed a big part of Lenny's life.
