A review by mrskristinkeyes
The Year We Fell from Space by Amy Sarig King
5.0
⭐️ Hello, you. If you’re reading this, you’re probably wondering, is this book a good investment of my time? Is it worthwhile? Well, to keep it short—it would be a waste of your time to NOT read this book.
So, I am not one to write reviews of books. I read them, I love them (or hate them), and then I move on to the next one. This one though.. oh my stars. ⭐️
You can read a synopsis above, so I’ll skip all of that. Here’s what you need to know:
1. A girl talks to a meteorite, and it is the most beautifully odd experience.
2. Liberty makes her own constellations out of the sky and uses those to help her understand how she’s feeling (and now I think this is something every person should do)
3. For a book about divorce, it is surprisingly funny (the chapter titles, the illustrations, Liberty’s thought process)
4. It is the most unique book I have EVER read
5. I finished it ten minutes ago and still have chills
6. It’s rare that I give a book 5 stars.
It’s probably about time to stop gushing, so here’s my final thoughts on the matter:
I know more about myself and life and others then I did before I read this book, and I’m pretty sure that’s what reading is all about.
Read The Year We Fell From Space. Devour it in one sitting, and be amazed at all the wisdom you can learn from the life a 6th grader.
