YA Book Review: The Sun is Also a Star

The Sun is Also a Star by Nicole Yoon is a book I would definitely recommend to other teens. This book was life changing and changed my perspective on life! It has so much diversity and it’s very down to earth. It talks about real life situations people are going through. The main characters are a female named Natasha who believes in scientism and a male named Daniel who believes in fate and things you can’t back up with evidence.

Natasha is getting deported back to Jamaica because of her fathers mistake. Daniel has to fill in for his perfect brother which ends up disappointing his parents. It is hard to live up to his parents’ expectations. Daniel meets Natasha and instantly falls in love. Natasha spends her last remaining day in New York city with Daniel and tries to live her best life before she gets deported.

I recommend this book to all readers who love down to earth and touching books.
