All the Ugly and Wonderful Things by Bryn Greenwood is a powerful love story set against the Midwestern backdrop of a meth lab. It tells the story of Wavy, the daughter of a drug dealer, who knows better than to trust people in her life. She struggles to care for her little brother, Donal, and finds solace in the night sky until a tragic accident brings her into an unlikely friendship with Kellen, one of her father's associates.
As Wavy grows into a teenager, her relationship with Kellen becomes a source of tenderness in a world of addiction and chaos. When her family falls apart, Wavy's well-meaning aunt intervenes, casting a critical eye on what Wavy sees as beautiful. All the Ugly and Wonderful Things challenges conventional notions of love and is a novel that will stay with you long after you finish reading it.
This thought-provoking book has received numerous accolades, including being named one of the top ten hottest reads of 2016 by the New York Daily News and one of the best books of 2016 by the St. Louis Post Dispatch. With its beautiful and provocative narrative, All the Ugly and Wonderful Things is a must-read that will captivate and challenge readers.
