I'll Follow the Sun

is a Beatles song.  I'll Give You the Sun is a book.  A long book.  I read it because of the Printz buzz around it.  I actually bought the MP3 CD because it wasn't available at the time as a download.  The thing is, on a CD you can't speed up the playback... and at first, that was okay!
This is a very engaging book.  It is told from two POVs, twins, a brother and a sister.  Art factors big-time in the book as does sexuality.  I really liked this book, but I feel like the editors did it a disservice by not editing more.  It just went on a bit too long.  Way too long for me, but for the normal person, probably just a bit too long. I don't see this as winning the Printz and I can't see a lot of readers sticking with it.  I had broken up with so many books recently,  that I felt I had to finish it.  But in the end it went on so long that I found myself not caring what happened to the characters, and that is a shame.
