Description: Product Information- 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 DispatchProduct IdentifiersPublisherSt. Martin's PressISBN-101250153964ISBN-139781250153968eBay Product ID (ePID)234958584Product Key FeaturesBook TitleAll the Ugly and Wonderful Things : a NovelAuthorBryn GreenwoodFormatTrade PaperbackLanguageEnglishTopicFamily Life, Literary, Coming of AgePublication Year2017GenreFictionNumber of Pages432 PagesDimensionsItem Length8.2inItem Height1.1inItem Width5.4inItem Weight13.4 OzAdditional Product FeaturesTarget AudienceTrade
