omqchristi 's review for:

The Sun Is Also a Star by Nicola Yoon
4.0

Readability: 4/5
Plot: 3/5
Recommend: Yes

The Sun is Also a Star contains the story of a girl, a boy, and the universe. Natasha doesn't believe in love. Daniel does. They only have one day together before they will never see each other again.

This book contains 3 cliches:
instant love, miracle reunion, and the one-believes-in-love-but-the-other-doesn't. This book is very cliche. In fact, the girl-doesn't-believe-in-love-but-the-boy-does trope was already done by (500) Days of Summer (and they did it better). The fact that they spend one day together and they fall in love, or the fact that they separate for ten years and then they meet again is super cliche.
The love story is cute, but the cliche is very, well... cliche and very predictable.
