All the Blues in the Sky by Renée Watson

5.0

Wow! At only 182 pages I started and finished All the Blues in the Sky by Renee Watson in a single sitting. Inspired by the grief and loss after the COVID pandemic and the loss of her mother, All the Blues in the Sky follows the grief journey of Sage after she tragically lost her best friend in a drunk driving incident. From navigating her own feelings of guilt, finding new friendships and a safe space to talk, to digging into grief group and almost losing it, to a budding young romance; All the Blues in the Sky is a series of beautifully and poignantly well written prose and verses. When I finished the book I audibly said, "That was an amazing book," and I don't typically do that. While this book is written for middle grade, it truly is a book for all ages. Renee Watson is a talent! 

Thank you Bloomsbury Books for the gifted ARC to review.
