Each time someone dies, a library burns. I’m watching it burn right to the ground.The sky is everywhere non è un libro leggero perchè la tematica che affronta non è semplice. Perdere una persona cara è sempre devastante da qualunque punto di vista. Sia che sia una figlia, una nipote, un'amica, una s...
An enjoyable enough story but I didn't ever get completely pulled into the narrative. The author wrote some beautiful passages but overall the book wasn't cohesive enough for me. Losing her sister unexpectedly, Lennie is pushed into grief. The way she expresses that grief - through random bits of p...
I had read so many great things about this book. Most people raved about it. So I decided to get it when I was at the library and I was excited to read. However, I was seriously disappointed.

It was wonderfully told through Lennie's persp...
Love and grief are companions through life, entwined as clearly as the sky is blue.Oh, this book. Where do I even begin?I had a feeling, about three chapters in, that this book was going to become a favorite. And at that point, I wasn’t even hooked yet. I wasn’t tied to the characters. I wasn’t dyin...
View this review with full formatting on EmmaMaree.com.This is one of those books that didn't quite "click" with me.The narrative and characterisation is flawless -Lennie and her sister are both loveable bookworms, and the Lennie's 'voice' is light-hearted and absolutely adorable. Every character is...
