Synopsis
- A New York Times and USA Today bestseller - Book of the Month Club 2016 Book of the Year - Second Place Goodreads Best Fiction of 2016 A beautiful and provocative love story between two unlikely people and the hard-won relationship that elevates them above the Midwestern meth lab backdrop of their lives. As the daughter of a drug dealer, Wavy knows not to trust people, not even her own parents. It's safer to keep her mouth shut and stay out of sight. Struggling to raise her little brother, Donal, eight-year-old Wavy is the only responsible adult around. Obsessed with the constellations, she finds peace in the starry night sky above the fields behind her house, until one night her star gazing causes an accident. After witnessing his motorcycle wreck, she forms an unusual friendship with one of her father's thugs, Kellen, a tattooed ex-con with a heart of gold. By the time Wavy is a teenager, her relationship with Kellen is the only tender thing in a brutal world of addicts and debauchery. When tragedy rips Wavy's family apart, a well-meaning aunt steps in, and what is beautiful to Wavy looks ugly under the scrutiny of the outside world. A powerful novel you won't soon forget, Bryn Greenwood's All the Ugly and Wonderful Things challenges all we know and believe about love. 31 Books Bringing the Heat this Summer -- Bustle Top Ten Hottest Reads of 2016 -- New York Daily News Best Books of 2016 -- St. Louis Post Dispatch

  • Hard to read content. If violence in a family setting upsets you, you shouldn’t pick up this book.

    I think if I where in a different time in my life, I may be able to sit down and get threw this book. Now isn’t the time for me. It’s not the length or the amount of pages... it’s just a little intense with the discriptions of child abuses/ neglect. My new mommy brain can’t handle. This book has given me nightmares and I’m only 11 chapters in. I hope to power threw and hopefully get to a time in Wavy’s life where she isn’t in harms way... but I’m not sure I’ll make it there any time soon.

  • Emotionally-charged. There's no way to read this book and not be moved.

    This is the most intriguing and emotionlly-charged book I've read in thirty years, and I've read a book a week all of my seventy-some years. Some people have reviewed that the content is inappropriate, but I'm afraid those people don't understand what the author is trying to tell us, that all sincere relationships are acceptable. The relationship between young, small, damaged Wavy and older, big, potentially-dangerous Kellen is more touching than Romeo and Juliet, and shows that broken people can find fellowship and love in each other's wounds, and transmute that into something real and viable. I love this book enough to read it over and over again, and I can only say that about possibly half a dozen books on the planet. You won't be disappointed.

  • Great Read!

    A book club selection and one I was skeptical about, but I am really liking the story. Hard to put down. The book itself had some wear and tear but that’s to be expected. Thank you!

  • Book review

    This book is amazing! Very controversial but so well-written. I even posted it to my book reading groups on Facebook and got mixed reviews but a lot of people want to purchase the book.
