When the World Tips Over

I do believe when the world tips over, joy spills out with all the sorrow.

But you have to look for it.”

When the world Tips over was a family generational story filled with magic, telepathic dogs, betrayals, love, and reconciliation. 
This book is massive... almost too massive. I'm not going to lie... it did take a bit for me to really get into the story. I had a hard time for the first 100 pages, which was mainly in Daisy's POV. BUT after getting through that bit we get into the meat of the story, and everything takes off from there! 
I really enjoyed reading all the pieces of the Paradise Springs/Fall/Fallas puzzle fall into place. Reading this felt very... nostalgic??? I remember reading I'll Give You the Sun in high school, and Nelson's storytelling really pulled me back to my freshman/sophomore year. 
I DO wish that Cassidy and Wynton never become a thing. Jandy Nelson worked OVERTIME, to make sure you knew that they were not related. It was weird. Very weird. There were other romantic storylines that could have replaced it, and Cassidy's story goes unchanged with Wynton if there was no romance. 
Other than that I did enjoy most of my time reading this story. Jandy Nelson does have a way with making her writing feel familiar even though the story is always unique. 
Ooh I can't end this review without mentioning my favorite Sandro!! The goodest dog!!
