Every Soul a Star
Every Soul a Star | Wendy Mass
15 posts | 34 read | 10 to read
And as streams of light fan out behind the darkened sun like the wings of a butterfly, I realize that I never saw real beauty until now. At Moon Shadow, an isolated campground, thousands have gathered to catch a glimpse of a rare and extraordinary total eclipse of the sun. It's also were three lives are about to be changed forever: Ally likes the simple things in life--labyrinths, star-gazing, and comet-hunting. Her home, the Moon Shadow campground, is a part of who she is, and she refuses to imagine it any other way. Popular and gorgeous (everybody says so), Bree is a future homecoming queen for sure. Bree wears her beauty like a suit of armor. But what is she trying to hide? Overweight and awkward, jack is used to spending a lot of time alone. But when opportunity knocks, he finds himself in situations he never would have imagined and making friends in the most unexpected situations. Told from three distinct voices and perspectives, Wendy Mass weaves an intricate and compelling story about strangers coming together, unlikely friendships, and finding one's place in the universe.

No, YOU got all teary eyed reading about three unlike teenagers experiencing a solar eclipse… oh man, this was so wonderful and quiet in a very non-dramatic way, I loved it very much. Thank you, @JamieArc for putting it on your #ALSpine-List. #bookspin

TheBookHippie My favourite of hers. 5mo

TheBookHippie ⬆️ she has more for the younger set I‘ve not read. 4mo
TheBookHippie Mindful the books are OLD so you will get a few cringe moments, but they don‘t detract too much from the story in my opinion. 4mo

A group of kids/teens all find themselves together for various reasons at Moon Shadow Campground during a total solar eclipse. These characters really grew on me, and I wanted to be part of their group, camping out in a shed during a storm and discovering exoplanets. Really enjoyed this one, and am now wondering how to see the next total eclipse in the US in 2024 🌚🌞✨#Booked2023 Quiet YA
Also, the Japanese maple has bloomed! 🍁

Some summers ago I lived in Tucson and visited a hippie commune in the desert. They had made their own huge telescopes and it was a highlight of my life to see Saturn. I, too, had a reaction that it looked fake, like a sticker. So reading this felt really wonderful, sharing that connection with these characters. Reading this for #Booked2023 Quiet YA

Christine Such a cool connection! 🪐 2y

This reminded me of The Breakfast Club (the jock, the nerd, the beauty…) but for MG. I liked the characters, their stories, how they interacted and how they grew and discovered that there‘s more to them than they thought.

My next roll & read for #Bookopoly is Every Soul a Star. This has been on my shelf for so long. I‘m reading more MG/YA books this month so this was on my #BookSpinBingo list already.

ShananigansReads I love when multiple challenges can be knocked out with one book. 😁 2y

I'm a shooting star, leaping through the sky
Like a tiger defying the laws of gravity
I'm a racing car, passing by like Lady Godiva
I'm gonna go, go, go
There's no stopping me🎶

My obsession with solar eclipses began years ago with this sweet book. Now it's a re-read come true as we wait for this year's remarkable event. Please join me and enjoy it as we all get ready to look up. - Melinda

Who needed another book challenge? This lady! BookBar made a Reading Without Walls Bingo board for grown ups based on the kid version. Started it off with Every Soul A Star, which was wonderful. Let's see what I can complete by the end of Aug! #BookBarDenver #ReadingWithoutWalls #BookBingo

merelybookish I saw this and considered doing it but I'm starting to think I'm not really cut out for reading challenges. 7y
Ruri_kaichou @merelybookish i may not be cut out for challenges as well. Lol. I really like them though 😊 it's a fun way to help broaden my horizons 7y

My last post here was over a month ago and I've missed Litsy! A big work project, kids, and a self-imposed ban from all social media for several weeks conspired to keep me away. I haven't been reading much either but did enjoy this middle-grade story of three very different teens who face the struggles of growing and wind up friends. There are some fascinating tidbits about eclipses and stars in here as well, a little education with a good story!

Blind Date With a Book was a success! There was delicious food and beverages, games and book talk. This was the book I picked and I'm excited to read it.... eventually 😅 #BlindDateWithABook #BookClub

Mc_cart_ny I wonder if we could try this next year with our book club? It looks like fun 😊 8y
Ruri_kaichou @Cinfhen it was! I really thought I was going to agonize over choosing a book, but instead it took me a minute. The book was calling to me! 8y
Ruri_kaichou @Mc_cart_ny I was thinking about that! I think if members chipped in for shipping it could work. Especially if you want to keep it as anonymous as possible 8y

YA fiction. Story revolves around a total solar eclipse and the people who congregate to view it. Enjoyed
