I’m sure that for some of us, it’ll bring back painful memories of high school that we don’t care to relive again. It delves deeply into important coming-of-age issues such as love, religion, family, friendship, depression, bullying, and discrimination. Her Name in the Sky is the perfect illustration of truth in fiction. As with any review, I can only draw from my own personal reading experience and hope that my words won’t diminish its value. It’s difficult for me to write a review that does this literary work any justice because it’s extraordinary. this book did come highly recommended, so I decided to give it a shot. My past experience with religion was an unpleasant one, and I steered clear of most literature that made any reference to Catholicism/Christianity. It’s a gay book, what more convincing do y’all need?Įdit 1: As someone pointed out below, this book is a slow burn just like Sterpil.I was initially very hesitant to read this novel.

TLDR Her Name in the Sky by Kelly Quindlen shares parallels to Sterpil, and shows what could have been between them. Kelly has also written another book called Late to the Party (highly recommend) and is currently writing a book called She Drives Me Crazy. If you do end up enjoying the book there is some fan fic written by the author on her tumblr page. As the book is, from what I can tell, out of print, you’ll need to order it on Amazon or find a version to read online. Although the beginning is sort of weak it picks up pretty quickly. I feel like I can’t say anymore without spoiling the book. It takes place in Louisiana and they all attended a catholic school where, you guessed it, people are homophobic. The book follows a senior in high school named Hannah, and her 5 other friends, Baker, Clay, Wally, Joanie, and Luke. In case TBH Season 2 doesn’t happen, I feel as although this book shows what could have happened between Sterpil. Throughout the story I noticed a lot of parallels to Sterling and April’s relationship, so I thought I’d get on here and share this book with you. I recently finished reading Her Name in the Sky by Kelly Quindlen.

Before I start I want to say I suck with words.
