“We were all heading for each other on a collision course, no matter what. Maybe some people are just meant to be in the same story.”

At first, Jude and her twin brother are NoahandJude; inseparable. Noah draws constantly and is falling in love with the charismatic boy next door, while daredevil Jude wears red-red lipstick, cliff-dives, and does all the talking for both of them.

Years later, they are barely speaking. Something has happened to change the twins in different yet equally devastating ways . . . but then Jude meets an intriguing, irresistible boy and a mysterious new mentor.

The early years are Noah’s to tell; the later years are Jude’s. But they each have only half the story, and if they can only find their way back to one another, they’ll have a chance to remake their world.

This radiant, award-winning novel from the acclaimed author of The Sky Is Everywhere will leave you breathless and teary and laughing—often all at once.

Simply poetic

This book reminded me that things happen even when you may not want them to. No matter what, we must learn and continue on our path because, eventually, we will get to where we were meant to be!

Timeless

I read this for the first time when I was 16, and have been meaning to reread it for years. I’m 26 now and finally got to it. There’s a reason it was and still is my favorite book.

Amazing

Amazing dualing narratives. The story is captivating, the narration is superb, the coming of age is real.

so good

loved the book, the audiobook is just as good. lyrical, some “problematic” relationships that truly feel are common and maybe should not be held against the author, a lot of hurt went into this book and a lot of healing. sometimes it comes in disguise.

Healed me in so many ways

I’m a young teen, who struggled with simply being gay in America. This book showed me so many things. I can’t thank it enough for that.
