Om boken

* An Instant New York Times Bestseller * "Jandy Nelson is a true virtuoso . . . I am fervently in love with this brave, funny, tender, exuberant beating heart of a book." --Becky Albertalli, author of Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda and Imogen, Obviously The explosive new novel that brims with love, secrets, and enchantment by Jandy Nelson, Printz Award-winning and New York Times bestselling author of I'll Give You the Sun The Fall siblings live in hot Northern California wine country, where the sun pours out of the sky, and the devil winds blow so hard they whip the sense right out of your head. Years ago, the Fall kids' father mysteriously disappeared, cracking the family into pieces. Now Dizzy Fall, age twelve, bakes cakes, sees spirits, and wishes she were a heroine of a romance novel. Miles Fall, seventeen, brainiac, athlete, and dog-whisperer, is a raving beauty, but also lost, and desperate to meet the kind of guy he dreams of. And Wynton Fall, nineteen, who raises the temperature of a room just by entering it, is a virtuoso violinist set on a crash course for fame . . . or self-destruction. Then an enigmatic rainbow-haired girl shows up, tipping the Falls' world over. She might be an angel. Or a saint. Or an ordinary girl. Somehow, she is vital to each of them. But before anyone can figure out who she is, catastrophe strikes, leaving the Falls more broken than ever. And more desperate to be whole. With road trips, rivalries, family curses, love stories within love stories within love stories, and sorrows and joys passed from generation to generation, this is the intricate, luminous tale of a family's complicated past and present. And only in telling their stories can they hope to rewrite their futures. "Splendid and complex . . . Satisfying and soul-thrilling." --SLJ (starred review) "Transcendently beautiful." --Nina LaCour, author of We Are Okay "Jandy Nelson is a rare, explosive talent." --Tahereh Mafi, author of the Shatter Me series "Sumptuous . . . Captivating . . . Luscious, start to finish." --Shelf Awareness (starred review) "A technicolor fever dream offering readers a sensory feast." --Kirkus "A gloriously intricate and expansive YA/adult crossover . . . Stunningly generous." --Just Imagine "Sublime, intricate, and dazzling." --Helena Fox, author of How It Feels to Float "A complex, seductive YA heartbreaker." --The Guardian "Intoxicating. Destined to] firmly lodge itself within many, many hearts." --The Irish Times "Magical and moving." --Common Sense Media "Beautiful." --Booklist "Unforgettable." --The Observer "Profound." --PW (starred review)
