Jandy nelson biography

I love your writing! Keep it up ; Can't wait to read whatever you will write because like I said before you're like the god of writing. So amazing!!! Again thank you :. May 13, PM. I love you so much! You are one my favorite authors!!!!!! Apr 30, AM. Omg, you actually accepted the friend requested : I finished I'll Give You The Sun a few days ago in my Kindle, and I couldn't resist purchasing as well the actual hardcover book edition, which is on its way as we speak.

Best wishes from South America, where you also have fans :. Sep 29, PM. Hello Jandy! Thank you SO much for accepting my friend request. It's no often that I want to tell the author of a book so many things But the first that comes to my mind is Thank you, with capital T. Because lately I've been feeling very lonely and sad and reading "I'll give you the sun" and falling in love with those characters save me from a really bad place.

I can't even begin to tell you how much I connect with Noah. I've never in my life felt a connection so real like the one I had with him while reading the book. I'm a ver artistic person and being that way I always felt exposed and without anything that could shield me from everything that happens in life. So seeing mostly feeling Noah storyline help me so much.

Anyway, I could go on and on but I really wanted to say thanks, because I know how hard it is to write something meaningful, something that would touch other people. I know the sacrifice, so thank you because you save something inside me that I was losing. Also, forget my spelling, english it's not my first language! Mar 15, PM. I can't even begin to describe how amazing "The Sky is Everywhere" is.

I can't believe this was your first novel. It seems like you have been writing for years! It seems unreal that I will never ever be able to read that story again without knowing who Lennie is going to pick and if Joe is ever going to forgive her. I laughed and cried along with Lennie, Big and Gram. I threw my book across the room in frustration when Lennie could not just pick the fabulous Joe over Toby.

I felt her pain with her sisters death and her frustration with everyone always wanting her to talk to them about it. Everyone around me could testify that I was head over heels in love with this book and literally sat in class trying to control my emotions and not start crying in the middle of class. A couple of times I actually gasped in the dead silent classroom.

Thank you for writing this book. I don't know how others can function in life without hearing this fabulous story. My eyes have been opened. This story gave me hope for my own romantic life. I feel as this story was just what I needed, to help me know that maybe I can end up with the guy who is the Joe Fontaine of my life. Maybe I can have a tale as romantic and not sappy as this one.

Maybe I can write on things and drop them to the wind or have an outdoor bedroom. Maybe, just maybe. My eyes have truly been opened to a whole new world other than my laptop and phone and who is wearing what. Thank you for that. Feb 25, AM. Hiya, I would just like to thank you for accepting my friend request like all the rest and tell you how great The Sky Is Everywhere actually is.

But I cant. Or should I? Anyways, thanks a lot, you're truly amazing and an inspiration. Love ya! Feb 17, AM. I want to thank you for accepting my friend request. You wouldn't guess how overjoyed I am. And to thank you for writing something extraordinary; 'The Sky Is Everywhere' I am so in love with your book, your words, the image that runs through every page.

I couldn't put it down. Everything was beautiful. I completed it in a day, and realized that I just experienced something amazing. You did an exceptional job on this and I can't wait to read more. I'm looking forward to your up coming book. You inspire me. Feb 13, AM. Thank you for accepting my FR. The Sky is Everywhere is one of my all time favorite books.

I loved the way you dealt with the topic and your poignant writing. Its a story I'll never forget. Looking forward to reading your other books :. Dec 16, PM. I love "The Sky is Everywhere"! It's fresh and invigorating with well developed characters, and as a poet myself, I appreciated Lennie's character.
