I am reading I'll Give You the Sun. It is about a set of twins. Their names are Jude and Noah. The story is told from both of their perspectives the tricky part is you hear from Noah when he is 13 and from Jude when she is 16, so three years later. From Noah you hear that he and his twin were almost inseparable, then Jude became friends with the popular girls and stopped hanging out with Noah. Then, a new guy moves in next to Jude and Noah, Brian. He and Noah get along great! He only has met Jude once so far because Noah doesn't want his sister near him. You figure out that Noah is gay and likes Brian you get the impression that Brian likes Noah to but I am not sure because he is also flirting with other girls. Also, Noah is a major artist he loves to draw he draws all the time whether on paper or in his mind. That is part of how we get an insight in his mind. Jude also likes to build sculptures but not as much as Noah loves to draw. They are both planning on applying to CSA (California School of the Arts ). Noah is way more excited to get in than Jude but she is doing it because her mom said that the spirit of Jude and Noah's grandma said she should go and Jude had a special bond with her grandmother.
From Jude's point of view three years later she has gotten into CSA and Noah did not! Another shocking thing is that Noah and Jude's mom died. Also, something has happened between Noah and Jude and now they avoid being in the same room as each other. Noah now is jumping of cliffs, which he used to get shoved off of. Now, Jude has sworn of guys but we are not really sure as to completely why quite yet. She did meet this guy at a church who was really nice and she likes but won't do anything because she believed that boys bring bad luck. She runs into him again because he lives at this house where a guy lives who Jude needs to help her do a project for CSA or she might risk losing her spot, which at the beginning she wanted to happen. So, now she is worried she might not be able to help not seeing him all the time which could cause a problem for her.
