Her Name in the Sky

Product Information

Did you want this?” Chaeyoung asks, holding up her empty to-go cup of sweet tea, her voice silly. “Maybe as a souvenir of our first date?” Let’s go out to the parking lot, Clay says, brushing past them. It was crazy in there. I need some air. Hannah es un personaje tan humano y lleno de dudas pero dispuesta a enfrentar todos los obstaculos que vengan. Just something small. Just the six of us. I didn’t think you’d want anything crazy, especially after that pep rally and the game—

Chaeyoung leans down and hugs Lisa from behind while the others talk and gather trash. “Thanks,” she says quietly into Lisa’s ear.Doubtful,” Lisa says. “But you know, this is probably the best Baby Jesus I’ve ever found in a King Cake.” Her Name in the Sky is a young adult novel about two best friends who can’t help falling in love during their senior year at a Catholic school in southern Louisiana. As they try to figure out their relationship, they grapple with the religious and cultural constraints of their community and, more severely, with internalized homophobia. The story has a happy ending. Jeon Jungkook: This is awesome, coming in a min, waiting for Akers to shut up so I can ask to leave, save me at least 4 beignets Wally leans down close to Hannah, his eyes bright and his mouth open in a big smile. Remember the first time Clay talked to us about football? he says.

Everyone talks about Mount Sinai like they’re the enemy, Hannah interrupts, "but we’re part of the same diocese. The same Catholic diocese. Don’t you find that a little hypocritical?" Fine.” Jisoo bites a nacho in two and hands Lisa the smaller half. “Don’t say I never did anything for you.” It’s hard, that second week of August. It’s bittersweet. Lisa’s stomach is anxious when she wakes in the morning. She thinks of how far she and Chaeyoung have come, and she wishes they could go on forever, growing and learning together, without the impending separation that college will bring. She needs to get over her jealousy,” Lisa says. “I mean, how long ago was that election? Like four months, at this point?”

I did three thousand push-ups in the time you were gone,” Jungkook says. He tosses the tennis ball to Felix and runs out into the street. “Throw it long!” The most remarkable thing about HNITS’ story is that its success is largely due to word of mouth marketing, especially through the online LGBTQ community. I am eternally grateful to the kind, generous, and brave readers who have embraced Hannah & Baker’s story and pushed the book into other readers’ hands. We weren't made to be alone. We were made to love. And when we love, we automatically know God without trying to, because God is love. If we love as he made us to love—if we love with our hearts instead of our criteria—then we simply are love.” Lisa pictures her friends’ faces lighting up when she and Felix surprise them with food. She sees Chaeyoung’s eyes growing large with her smile. Chaeyoung’s smile falters. She drops her hand from the shower caddy. “We’re gonna be fine, Lis,” she says. “We’re going to miss each other, but we’ll be fine.”
