【在灰暗中尋找使生命重燃的太陽】I'll Give You the Sun, by Jandy Nelson

諾亞和茱迪是異卵雙胞胎的兄妹，13歲時的他們相當敏銳、極具藝術天分，能理解彼此的感受、解讀彼此深藏的恐懼、互相爭爸媽的寵也是兄妹的日常，雖然在性格上完全不一樣，兩人關係密切。茱迪大膽外向、喜歡衝浪，是那種會馬上吸引所有男孩目光的女孩，諾亞則相反，被笑稱娘砲的他只想保持低調、活在自己的小宇宙裡，還暗戀著一位隔壁搬來的新男孩。諾亞意識到自己是個同性戀，卻不願意向任何人說，茱迪則迷戀上了一位年紀大很多的壞男孩。然而直到這個家的"太陽"母親出車禍意外死亡後，雙胞胎兩人開始陷入了各自的深淵，漸漸地不再為對方敞開心房。

後來16歲的諾亞，除了放棄當藝術家，還成為了誰也想預料不到的模樣，他參加球隊、變得很受歡迎，還交了女朋友。而曾一度是風雲人物的茱迪則開始封閉自己的情感，不僅為了想找到與母親的連結，與已過世的外婆對話，還總是在口袋裡帶著一顆洋蔥，此時的她儘管迫切地需要創作藝術，卻苦無表達自我的方式。茱迪的困境在遇上了另一位同樣充滿煩惱的藝術家時出現了轉機，而這位神秘的男子卻與諾亞也有匪淺的關係，這位藝術家能藉由他的才華帶給茱迪答案還是更多的問題呢？

書中不斷切換茱迪與諾亞兩人的時空與視角，描述短短幾年間兩人青春期成長的苦痛與劇變，假裝一切正常生活在面具之下的諾亞，與故步自封不願前進的茱迪，各自面對家庭、生離死別、自我性別認同、人際關係、感情問題等等，產生不同的反彈，他們又該怎麼找回屬於他們的太陽，並走出後續的人生，推薦給同樣陷入灰暗青春泥沼的你。


The New York Times Bestselling story of first love, family, loss, and betrayal for fans of John Green, Jojo Moyes, Emma Straub, and Rainbow Rowell

"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. Printz Award Winner
