BookRead2Day
Hands down, this is the best YA book I have read in the last five years […] I laughed, I cried, and didn't want it to end. I could ascribe any number of adjectives to it—unputdownable, delightful, beautiful, transcendent—but individually they would fall short of just how much I love this book. It is all of those, and more.
Amazon
Lyrically written, with just the right dash of whimsy and quirk, this beautiful YA novel gave us all the feels. Powerful and tender.
WRD Magazine
When the World Tips Over genuinely deserves a world of praise…definitely one of the best books I have ever read.

THE INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
An explosive new novel brimming with love, secrets, and enchantment by Jandy Nelson, the New York Times bestselling author of I’ll Give You the Sun.
"I am fervently in love with this brave, funny, tender, exuberant beating heart of a book." – Becky Albertalli, New York Times bestselling author of Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda
Welcome to Paradise Springs, Northern California – a hot, dusty, half-magical, wine-country town where there are so many grapes fermenting at one time, you get drunk from breathing the air; where devil winds blow so hard they whip your sense away. A town where every fairy tale you've ever read could be set ... and "home" to the family Falls.
When a strange, enigmatic, rainbow-haired girl shows up in their fantastical hometown, it sends the lives of Fall brothers Wynton and Miles and their sister Dizzy into tumult. With road trips, rivalries, family curses, love stories within love stories within love stories, and sorrows and joys passed from generation to generation, this is the intricate, luminous tale of a family’s complicated past and present. And only in telling their stories can they hope to rewrite their futures.
