Books Descriptions
Izzy, a practical-minded teen who intends to become a doctor, isn't happy
about her recent move from the Lower East Side across the river to
Brooklyn. She feels distanced from her family, especially her increasingly
incomprehensible twin brother, as well as her new neighborhood. And then
she meets Tristan. Tristan is a chess prodigy who lives with his aunt and
looks up to his cousin, Marcus. He and Izzy meet one moonlit night, and
together they tumble into a story as old and unstoppable as love itself. In
debut author Shannon Dunlap's capable hands, the romance that has
enthralled for 800 years is spun new. Told from several points of view,
this is a love story for the ages and a love story for this very moment.
This fast-paced novel is at once a gripping tale of first love and a
sprawling epic about the bonds that tie us together and pull us apart and
the different cultures and tensions that fill the contemporary American
landscape.
