At first it is a little difficult to get into the book due to the writing style, it’s not typically YA, just very different and imagery focused. However once you have a grasp of that, the characters are fully realised and relatable (each in a different way, but Noah has to be the favourite). 

The changing of timelines/perspectives is engaging. The best way to describe this book is the fiction example of the invisible string theory. It will have you laughing, crying and believing in love and fate.

The story was told by a set of teenage girl/boy twins, Jude and Noah. They once had a very close relationship and often thought of themselves as NoahandJude. A multitude of events and misunderstandings put them at odds with each other and with whom they thought they were as people. Neither knew how to put their broken world back together, but they knew they needed to set things right to find their way back to each other.

Wow! That was good. Jandy Nelson did a very good job of writing teen angst and the feeling of the world being out of balance. I loved how Noah’s creativity was described as an ecstatic impulse. I would love to know what it would be like to have that feeling. I related a lot to Jude’s character, a teen wondering how to navigate boys, friends, and acting one way, but feeling another. Guillermo and Oscar were wonderful additions to the story and played their parts well. I could fully imagine what they looked like and how they reacted. There were times when I knew what was going to happen and hoped it didn’t and others when the story caught me completely by surprise. I loved that.
