Today’s book suggestion is another book from my collection and its called The Sun is Also A Star by Nicola Yoon.
This is a YA novel published in 2016 and it tells the story of Natasha, a young girl who’s family is about to be deported back to Jamaica and Daniel, who’s dealing with the high expectations of his parents. To both of their surprise, they meet one day and fall in love.
I decided to purchase this book after learning that both characters are of different races and that the book explores an interracial relationship. These types of stories really excite me because I’ve been in an interracial relationship for almost 20 years and we’ve been married almost 16 years with 2 children. So I can definitely relate to challenges that I’m sure these characters may endure.
Another cool thing, is at the time of this recording the motion picture is also being produced and I can’t wait to see it. I just hope I get to reading this book before the movie comes out!
So, short and sweet, that’s my suggestion for today.
