The Sun Is Also a Star by Nicola Yoon

Admittedly I was not enjoying the book when I started. The random facts and information between the main story were irritating and I just wanted to focus. I realized they were interesting and appreciated what they were trying to do but I was annoyed nonetheless.
That being said, after getting halfway in, when I had a better feel for the story I realized that it no longer bothered me and I was able to appreciate them. And in the end I admit they are what makes the story more than what it is. They provide a connection that we usually miss, the things we don’t usually think about. The reason behind the actions of others.
It’s funny that my favorite thing about this book was the thing that annoyed me the most in the beginning. I should also mention that I was listening to the audio book so that probably added to the annoying interruption feeling that I got from them. Anyway, I really enjoyed the story. I loved the characters, I loved the idea and I loved the experience. The love story was cute but the mindfulness that I got from it was even better.
