“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. Death & Dying Difficult Situations Family & Relationships LGBTQ+ Literature & Fiction Romance Feel-Good Superhero

Miiiight be one of my new favourite books?? I'm not sure!! This was just so amazing to listen to :))! I actually went into this with lower expectations because of one (or both?? forgot the contents of the other) of the other reviews' critiques of the performance and after starting it, I think I understood what they meant LMFAO but I got used to it eventually - it might just be something with me, though, and how I don't necessarily have a good ear for distinguishing accents so it wasn't toooo? big of a issue for me but yeah :) I think the most jarring thing was maybe the difference in Noah's voice between both narrators, but that's about all lol. I'm rambling!!! This story is actually soooo good I loved it so much, actually amazing story, amazing characters, I do recommend!!!

Amazing amazing story!!

This is an example of why having two narrators doesn't work. When they do completely different voices and accents for the same character it just ruins the whole thing. There is a character with a British accent. The female narrator makes him sound like Hugh Grant and the male narrator makes him sound like a slightly Australian Oliver Twist. It was painful.
