The Color of the Sky.
You love it, we love it. And quite understandably, too, as there is a lot to like. Enough of it to go around, you might say. An endless supply. Total abundance. The lion's share, but for everyone. Because each and every day it's still there, a little different each time: sometimes grey and bland, sometimes fiery orange, sometimes deep navy, sometimes salmon and swirling, something rainy and drab. It has one job, very simple, and it does it very well. Very reliably. Like a big clockwork blanket. Let's give it up for #the color of the sky.
Happy window watching x

I'll Give You The Sun changed my life in ways I can't even begin to describe, so imagine how excited I am about Jandy Nelson's new book. Her first in 10 years! It has been such a long wait, but I'm certain it will be worth it.

The Sky is Everywhere
Young adult novel about grief and love
This book has been on my shelf for a very long time. Way back when I started this blog, I was frantically collecting books with tinted edges and I picked this one up from a Canberra book shop called Book Passion. However my bookshelf was bigger than my eyes and it has taken me a very long time to get to some of these early books. In an effort to try to…

Kinda wanna live in the universe of The Sky is everywhere, where the light falls perfectly on your face, the earth hugs you when you listen to music, have a rose garden and rosewood trees in your backyard, have a room that is painted in colors of the sky, an uncle who smokes weed and a grandma who paints and of course a loving boy with the brightest smile.

Hello everyone! I'm finally getting around to planning out book posts like I mentioned in a post the other week!
I figured that I would start with a general post showing you all of the books that I've read so far this year! They're in the order that I read them for the most part. I had to throw The Black Phone Stories at the top so that my stack wouldn't be too haphazardous.
I've talked on here breifly before that I would like to start posting more, and specifically post some bookish content. I've loved books since I was a child, and I've collected them my whole life.
I've always been a reader but I've found that the last two years of my life I'm starting to read just as much as I did when I was a child. This is something that I'm really excited about. I've discovered so masny amazing titles and authors the past few months and my To Read List is getting longer and longer.
I'm not sure exactly how these posts will go, I imagine they'll be quite rambly just like this one. I'll always warn before I spoil anything, but keep in mind that I will be posting spoilers!
Let me know if you've read or plan to read any of the books in this list! I dont know if I'll make a post on every book on here, but I'm going to for sure make posts on my favorite ones! If I'm being honest, most of them have become a favorite in some way. I feel like I've gotten so lucky with my book selections this year!
Reply with any book reccs you have for me!! :D
Also, I'm currently reading These Violent Delights, I'm a bit over halfway and I absoluuutely love it so far!! I can't wait to read the sequel, I have sooo many sequels to read!! A lot of the books in this list have sequels coming out this year and early next year!!

Day 6: JOMPBPC: Writing In A Book
One of the hand written poems in The Sky is Everywhere by Jandy Nelson, they're meant to be written by the main character, Lennie Walker, and they're scattered throughout her town and the book! 💙

grief is a house
where the chairs
have forgotten how to hold us
the mirrors how to reflect us
the walls how to contain us
grief is a house that disappears
each time someone knocks at the door
or rings the bell
a house that blows into the air
at the slightest gust
that buries itself deep in the ground
while everyone is sleeping
grief is a house where no one can protect you
where the younger sister
will grow older than the older one
where the doors
no longer let you in

there’s not one truth ever, just a whole bunch of stories, all going on at once, in our heads, in our hearts, all getting in the way of each other. It’s all a beautiful calamitous mess.
The Sky Is Everywhere, Jandy Nelson

If you're someone who knows the worst thing can happen at any time, aren't you also someone who knows the best thing can happen at any time too.
