【一天的戀愛實驗，卻有意外變因，愛情成果還能繼續維持嗎？】The Sun Is Also a Star

娜塔夏一家人是來自牙買加的非法移民，如今因為被查核需要被遣返回國，為了待在美國，大哭一場後的娜塔夏決定付諸行動，利用所剩不多的時間，到曼哈頓找律師來爭取機會。丹尼爾則是韓裔的準大學生，即將去參加耶魯大學的入學面試，雖然他其實興趣缺缺，因為他選擇的醫學系不過是為了符合長輩們的期待。當丹尼爾在廣場上見到娜塔夏的第一眼就被深深吸引，後來當他們經過一連串的事件後，被浪漫沖昏頭的丹尼爾向娜塔夏打賭，要用一天讓你愛上我，然而，此時還有要務在身的娜塔夏怎麼可能還有心情心動。

命運就是如此捉弄人，在一整天的巧合與陰錯陽差後，娜塔夏一家人的命運仍然沒有扭轉，但即將離開美國的娜塔夏卻對丹尼爾忍不住掉下眼淚。今後分隔兩地的兩人，要如何才能維持這初綻放就得面對分離的戀情呢？

除了愛情元素以外，男女主角不同的移民家庭與文化也是此小說中的一大看點，作者本身即是來自牙買加的非裔移民，而她的丈夫也是韓裔，這讓她在小說的取材與塑造角色方面都相當豐富且真實，推薦給喜歡一見鍾情、命中注定，浪漫卻曲折劇情的你。

The #1 New York Times bestseller and National Book Award finalist from the bestselling author of Everything, Everything will have you falling in love with Natasha and Daniel as they fall in love with each other!

Natasha: I’m a girl who believes in science and facts. Not fate. Not destiny. Or dreams that will never come true. I’m definitely not the kind of girl who meets a cute boy on a crowded New York City street and falls in love with him. Not when my family is twelve hours away from being deported to Jamaica. Falling in love with him won’t be my story.

Daniel: I’ve always been the good son, the good student, living up to my parents’ high expectations. Never the poet. Or the dreamer. But when I see her, I forget about all that. Something about Natasha makes me think that fate has something much more extraordinary in store—for both of us.

The Universe: Every moment in our lives has brought us to this single moment. A million futures lie before us. Which one will come true?

A Walter Award Honor Book "Beautifully crafted." --People "A book that is very much about the many factors that affect falling in love, as much as it is about the very act itself. . . . Fans of Yoon's first novel, Everything Everything, will find much to love--if not, more--in what is easily an even stronger follow up." --Entertainment Weekly "Transcends the limits of YA as a human story about falling in love and seeking out our futures." --POPSUGAR.com
