In this book talk, I present the book The Sun Is Also A Star by Nicola Yoon in a four-minute summary and explanation using three parts from the book.

After a fateful encounter, Natasha and Daniel, two people from two different worlds fall in love with each other in a romantic dream, but conflicts occur between the two when it comes to their background. Natasha is an undocumented immigrant that needs to figure out how to stay in America before she gets deported the next day. Daniel, on the other hand, has a very different problem. Born as an American-born Korean, he frequently gets discriminated against by his way more “Americanized” brother. Through the two protagonist’s interaction, they get to know each other more and agree to help each other even when conflict between the two occurs, as two worlds intertwine into one, and their fates are decided through their love for each other…

The common theme in this book is fate and love, since Daniel falls in love with Natasha not knowing that she might have to leave him after just one day in their relationship, while Natasha has to solve this problem that will determine her fate and future.
