Upcomine Release: The Sky Is Everywhere

The Sky Is Everywhere
By: Jandy Nelson

Pub date: March 9th, 2010

Seventeen-year-old Lennie Walker, bookworm and band geek, plays second clarinet and spends her time tucked safely and happily in the shadow of her fiery older sister, Bailey.

But when Bailey dies abruptly, Lennie is catapulted to center stage of her own life—and, despite her nonexistent history with boys, suddenly finds herself struggling to balance two. Toby was Bailey’s boyfriend; his grief mirrors Lennie’s own. Joe is the new boy in town, a transplant from Paris whose nearly magical grin is matched only by his musical talent.

For Lennie, they’re the sun and the moon; one boy takes her out of her sorrow, the other comforts her in it. But just like their celestial counterparts, they can’t collide without the whole wide world exploding.

summary from goodreads.com

This sounds like a very heartfelt story. I really love books that deal with tragedy and show the main character overcoming different obstacles relating to the topic at hand. There's a lot of potential with this book. I'm very much looking forward to it.
