I liked the book’s ending better than the movie ( ) The Sun is Also a Star was way to “teen” for me. Full of angst without the characters actually trying to figure out solutions to their issues. I did feel for Natasha, who was about to be deported, but considering her self-professed intelligence a solution might have been for her to go to Jamaica for a few months and then apply to colleges as an international student. I did NOT feel for Daniel who creeped me out and who was way to pushy with Natasha. I like the instalove troupe in many cases, but kiddo was obviously just freaked out about his plans for the future and needed to act out. I DNF’d about 2/3 and have no regrets. First off, this is an excellent read-alike for [b:Eleanor & Park|15745753|Eleanor & Park|Rainbow Rowell|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1341952742s/15745753.jpg|17225055]. Second, I am just slightly too cynical for this book. I rolled my eyes more than once, but I still really appreciated the sweetness at the heart of the story. Third, excellent audiobook! Three narrators, one for Natasha, one for Daniel, and one for the interludes. I loved the interludes, particularly the non-fiction-ish ones about science and history. Last, and most important, I'm really glad I read this. It made me happy and helped take my mind off the ugliness in the world right now. At the same time, it's kind of related to the ugliness in the world right now because Natasha is dealing with her immigration status. I wondered if Yoon wrote this before or after DACA. Natasha could've been a DREAMer. no reviews | add a review
