Teens are invited to sign up for our Teen Book Bag to receive this month’s selection, The Sun Is Also a Star by Nicola Yoon, along with a selection of themed goodies! Our next meeting will be held on March 7th at 3:30 p.m., where we’ll discuss the book and explore themes of fate, love, and the ripple effects of chance encounters.
The Sun Is Also a Star follows Natasha and Daniel, two teens from very different worlds who cross paths in New York City on a life-changing day. Natasha is a realist who believes in science, not fate—especially not when her family is hours away from being deported to Jamaica. Daniel is a dreamer, torn between his Korean American family's expectations and his own aspirations as a poet. When their worlds collide, an undeniable connection sparks between them. But with so little time and so many obstacles, is love enough to change destiny?
Told in alternating perspectives and interwoven with the voices of the people they meet, this novel explores the beauty of unexpected connections, the weight of choices, and the magic of the universe working in ways we can’t always see. Fans of heartfelt, thought-provoking stories will love this National Book Award finalist that asks: What if the smallest moments have the power to shape our lives forever?
