Teaser Tuesday is a weekly bookish meme hosted by MizB of Books and a Beat If you want to join in grab your current read, flick to a random page, select two sentences (without spoilers) and share them in a blog post or in the comments of Books and a Beat.
This week my teaser comes from The Sun Is Also a Star by Nicola Yoon, author of Everything, Everything. It’s a young adult, contemporary romance that I received from NetGalley. I’m about 75% in so far and really enjoying it.
My Teaser
It seems like such a long time ago when I thought the world of him. He was some exotic planet and I was his favorite satellite. But he’s no planet, just the final fading light of an already dead star.
And I’m not a satellite. I’m space junk, hurtling as far as I can away from him.

Blurb
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?
Happy reading everyone.

Wow – what a FANTASTIC cover. I love the metaphor in this book. Is it all about their romance? I’ve become rather bored with lurve stories over the years… This is my sci fi adventure TT – https://sjhigbee.wordpress.com/2016/10/25/teaser-tuesday-25th-october-2016/

I’m always attracted to books by their covers. The quote is actually about her relationship with her father. It is definitely a romance but there’s lots of science bits so you might enjoy it.

Yes… I’m always attracted to covers too. Far more than I should be, I fear…

I like the comparison of their relationship to planets, satellites, and space junk. Clever.

I know. The one thing I’ve really loved about this book is the language. I find myself highlighting chunks all over the place.
