ReviewsA New York Times Bestseller An Indie Bestseller A USA Today Bestseller Good Morning America Book Club Pick Target Book Club Pick Junior Library Guild Gold Standard Selection An Amazon Best Book of the Year So Far "The legendary Libba Bray writes punk rock journeys across wide swaths of dark history and deep into the wonder of the human soul. She is one of our most original minds and Under the Same Stars will leave you shattered and wildly hopeful." -- E. Lockhart, author of We Were Liars and Genuine Fraud "Libba Bray is magic. [Her] gorgeous prose and propulsive plotting draw the reader into the lives of young people who are fighting for their communities and themselves and you'll want to fight right alongside them. . . . stirring and absolutely unforgettable." --Samira Ahmed, New York Times- bestselling author of Internment and Hollow Fires "Under the Same Stars is both a sweeping and epic tale of young people in three very different eras grappling with what it means to fight injustice. It is a stark reminder that the past is prologue. It's also a Libba Bray book, meaning it's full of banter, romance, humor and a little bit of magic." --Gayle Forman, author of Not Nothing and After Life "Immersive... Bray emphasizes how much we're connected, offering a powerful depiction of transformative storytelling as an act of resistance and a harbinger of the future... a breathtaking journey that will leave a lasting impression on readers' minds and hearts." -- Kirkus Reviews, starred review "Masterful, heart-wrenching...Readers will come away motivated to be fully present, completely themselves, and to believe that courageous action matters. Because we all--past, present, and future--live under the same stars." -- Booklist, starred review "Bray is no stranger to complex magic systems, developing here a magic that lies in the power of storytelling itself... A gripping and complex mystery that spans three timelines about storytelling, resistance, remorse, and reconciliation." -- Shelf Awareness , starred review "Ms. Bray's abundance of timelines and characters offers willing readers ages 12 to 18 different entry points into what is essentially one story: How we awaken to injustice around us and how we're called to act afterward." -- Wall Street Journal "A moving love letter to courage, connection, and the long fight against oppression." -- School Library Journal "[An] inspiring historical mystery... Bray's intimate third-person narrative kaleidoscopes back and forth in time, interweaving the three story lines and highlighting their internal resonance." -- Publishers Weekly "The three timelines are beautifully woven together, layered with secret loves, deep betrayals, and painful regrets, all threaded by the persistent theme that resistance to oppression looks different in different times but is always defined by a search for justice." --The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books "In this ambitious work, Bray alternates three seemingly disparate stories, briefly braiding them into one near the novel's end...Throughout, Bray stresses the value of resistance to 'our flawed world's inhumanity, intolerance, and authoritarianism' by means of 'acts both large and small.'" --Horn Book
