Deb (Readerbuzz) Nance Wow. Wow. Wow.

(That doesn't tell you much, does it? Let's see if I can tell you a little bit of what this story is about....)

Two twins, Jude and Noah, are alternately incredibly close and then completely estranged. They have difficult relationships with their parents and friends and relatives who have passed on.

(Okay, that isn't really helpful, is it? But it's the best I can do, I think.)

Brilliant writing and characters that are so mesmerizing you can't set the book down. That's at least part of the reason this book has won a page full of awards including School Library Journal's Best Book of the Year and Cybils Award finalist and TAYSHAS Reading List Top Ten of the Year.

I tell you what: In the vernacular of Jude and Noah, I'll give you the sun for this book. And the earth. And the moon. Yes, it's that good.
