The Sky is Everywhere Chapter 35 Summary

  • As if you haven't reached for tissues enough, this poem is about how a dead girl and her sister were far away and had trouble communicating, until the sister realized the dead girl could hear the music of her clarinet.
  • Lennie very triumphantly tells Rachel that, come autumn, she's going to challenge her to first chair. Oh, and she's going back to Marguerite and will try out for All-States, too. Lennie's feeling good.
  • But later, she feels terrible because she has a future and Bailey doesn't.
  • Lennie realizes she's going to be like this for the rest of her life—she will never stop grieving Bailey because she will never stop loving her.
  • Lennie goes to the forest bedroom, writes a love poem to Joe, and leaves it there.
