All the Way Around the Sun
Author(s): XiXi Tian
Format: Paperback
All the Way Around the Sun is a powerful childhood friends-to-lovers tale about secrets, grief and family bonds, from the author of This Place is Still Beautiful.
Stella Chen is annoyed.
Her parents have forced her to join the Zhao family on a college tour around the West Coast, and their overachieving son Alan, who she hasn't seen since she was six, is insufferable.
It also seems like her parents can't wait to take a break from her, as she's a constant reminder of the son they recently lost - Stella's big brother, David.
Tensions fly as Stella struggles with grief, long-kept family secrets are revealed, and at some point along the way she begins to see Alan as more than just the bratty kid from her childhood...
