 I'll Give You The Sun is an unforgettable, heartbreaking novel that will hit readers with so many emotions and will leave them breathless. Jandy Nelson's writing style is extremely unique and it took me a bit of time to get used to it, but I was extremely impressed with how distinct she made each point of view. Readers will laugh, smile and cry along with Noah and Jude, these are characters that I fell in love with and I just know that countless other readers will too. Few books have emotionally affected me like Nelson's latest and there's something so stunning about this novel. 
 I'll Give You The Sun is told in two point of views and covers two major points in Jude and Noah's lives. Noah tells the story of when he was 13/14 and Jude tells the story of when she was 16/17; in doing so, both twins give one half of the story and together they give a complete picture of their lives. Everything comes together in such a cohesive, realistic way in I'll Give You The Sun and it was impressive how Nelson connected these two storylines seamlessly. The beauty in this novel is truly in the details and how everything seems to come full circle by the time the final pages roll around. 
 Jandy Nelson's writing has an almost dreamlike quality to it and this novel is very heavy on metaphors and hyperboles. Each page is coated with metaphors, something that bothered me initially, but I quickly grew to love the way Nelson writes. Each voice is finely and realistically crafted, giving this novel a sense of authenticity and beauty. I definitely prefered Noah's story with his artistic musings and ability to turn any scenario into a work of art. I did really enjoy June's point of view with her superstitions and quirks, but it just didn't live up to Noah's POV. 
 The romance in this book made my heart beat incredibly fast and I fell for the two couples incredibly fast. I love how Nelson explored Noah's sexuality and his path from questioning if he's gay to his lusting after Brian. The 'questioning' section of this novel was intriguing and not enough LGBT novels address the uncertainty that comes with discovering that you're gay. The romance between Jude and Oscar was incredibly sweet and it definitely made my heart race with excitement. I was initially perturbed by the age difference between these two, but I became so drawn into their relationship that age became a frivolous concern. I loved the way these relationships progressed, the characters fall in love slowly, but surely in a realistic manner. 
 The only thing better than the romance in this novel was the relationship between Jude and Noah. I have never seen such a true portrayal of the relationship between siblings and this novel chronicles the highs and lows that dominate their lives. As much as I rooted for the couples in this novel, I was secretly harboring a hope that the siblings would reconcile and be the best friends they once were. It was so touching watching the younger versions of Jude and Noah interact, yet knowing that the siblings would become estranged broke my heart. YA novels usually skip over familial relationships, but the magic of this novel lies in the bond between Jude and Noah. 
 I'll Give You The Sun shows how beautiful and messy love can truly be and what it truly means to live. Nelson explores the love between the two siblings perfectly and readers will root for them to fall in love with their respective partners and mend their relationship. I didn't expect this novel to be such a whirlwind and powerful novel, but Nelson really surprised me with her unique writing and ability to craft such genuine relationships. I haven't read a novel ever like I'll Give You The Sun and books like this one are rare gems that ought to be treasured.
