Resumen del Editor
A poignant, funny, openhearted novel about coming out, first love, and being your one and only best and true self.
Julián Luna has a plan for his life: Graduate. Get into UCLA. And have the chance to move away from Corpus Christi, Texas, and the suffocating expectations of others that have forced Jules into an inauthentic life.
Then in one reckless moment, with one impulsive tweet, his plans for a low-key nine months are thrown - literally - out the closet. The downside: the whole world knows, and Jules has to prepare for rejection. The upside: Jules now has the opportunity to be his real self.
Then Mat, a cute, empathetic Twitter crush from Los Angeles, slides into Jules’s DMs. Jules can tell him anything. Mat makes the world seem conquerable. But when Jules’s fears about coming out come true, the person he needs most is fifteen hundred miles away. Jules has to face them alone.
Jules accidentally propelled himself into the life he’s always dreamed of. And now that he’s in control of it, what he does next is up to him.
Reseñas de la Crítica
“Narrator Avi Roque's light, husky voice brings both warmth and gravity to Jules's first-person narration, keeping listeners invested even when times get tough. Roque also displays vocal versatility, particularly during conversations among Jules and his friends wherein each character's voice is recognizable amid exclamations, pop-culture references, and casual switches between English and Spanish. Altogether, it's a moving and genuine listening experience.”—AudioFile Magazine
“Garza Villa’s debut is buoyed by tenderness and humor amid moments of deep pain…An open-hearted expression of love in its many forms.”—Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
“Although parts of the story are heartbreaking and heavy, they are balanced with humor and hope, giving queer teens of color opportunities to see joy and love reflected back to them. Tender, touching, hopeful, and hilarious; enthusiastically recommended for all collections.”—School Library Journal (starred review)

Luckily, Quique’s prospects are each intriguing in their own ways.

Sixteen-year-old Tessa Johnson has never felt like the protagonist in her own life. She’s rarely seen herself reflected in the pages of the romance novels she loves. The only place she’s a true leading lady is in the swoony love stories she shares only with Caroline, her best friend. When Tessa is accepted into the creative writing program of a prestigious art school, she’s excited to finally let her stories shine. But when she goes to her first workshop, the words are just...gone. Caroline has a solution: Tessa needs to find some inspiration in a real-life love story of her own.

It’s taken me three years to confess that leaving her behind was the biggest mistake of my life. I won’t stop until she knows what she means to me. I’ll convince her to listen to her heart.

Historia
When the only other virgin in her group of friends loses it at Keely's own 18th birthday party, she's inspired to take things into her own hands. She wants to have that experience too (well, not exactly like that - but with someone she trusts and actually likes), so she's going to need to find the guy, and fast. Problem is, she's known all the boys in her small high school forever, and it's kinda hard to be into a guy when you watched him eat crayons in kindergarten.

I saw her first. Blonde. Gorgeous. Feisty. I was smitten. But it didn’t matter because she chose him, and he was my best friend and roommate. I’d never be able to compete with that, so I pushed her away instead. It was easy when she lived hours away, and I didn’t have to see her every day, but then she moved in with us. Now, I’m screwed. From her singing in the shower every morning, dancing in the kitchen while she makes coffee, and doing yoga in our living room, I can’t stop thinking about her in all the wrong ways.

Unfortunately, she wants nothing to do with me. At all. Something about the next Ice Age might have even come up in her rebuttal. Adorable.

The night we met in the dimly lit bar, she looked like a brunette bombshell, and I wanted to learn her deepest secrets. With sun-kissed skin and soulful bedroom eyes, she was pure temptation, and I was mesmerized. As one drink led to two, I craved more of her playful banter and taunting lips. Resisting her wasn't an option, and we quickly became a desperate mess of tangled limbs and hot kisses. She tasted like the sweetest sin, but I was no saint.

Absolutely incredible
This is an incredibly sweet, engaging, and relevant coming out story, steeped in Mexican and Vietnamese culture. This book is exactly what I look for in a YA book. It’s age appropriate while not being childish or infantilizing, and covers topics, emotions and experiences that adults can relate to as well.
I really loved the found family aspect of this book. There were some painful moments between Julián and his father, but every beat of the book was balanced between realistically sad and challenging, and hopeful and positive.
My other favorite part of this book is the food! From vegetarian takes on Mexican tamales and Texas mac n cheese, as well as Vietnamese Goi Cuon and Banh Bao. Food is absolutely a love language for me and my family (including my Vietnamese in-laws) so I especially enjoyed the scenes in the kitchen and over meals.

Otra vez!! I’m listening again!
I loved this book. It really captured a piece of Texas life for a queer person. I love the optimism of love and the truth of hurt and pain. Jonny writes with great detail and passion. I loved his references.
Avi, really is a great performer as well. I felt the pain, hate and joy from the characters with his performance.

10/10
This was so good! It got me all emotional and sniffling, especially the stuff with the grandpa! I really liked the relationships with the friend group too, and how well they all were at communicating their feelings.

Wonderful LGBTQ coming of age story
I'm so happy that this book was brought up in a book club I'm in. It's not a book that was on my radar, but it's a book that I think everyone should read or listen to. It's a coming of age story for a Hispanic LGBTQ boy living in Texas that has not come out to the ones he is closest with. But there are many reasons he hasn't been able to be his true self. And at the top of the list is fear of acceptance.
Julián aka Jules has been brought up without his mother. It's been him and his dad for as long as he can remember. He has an amazing sister, but she's quite a bit older and doesn't live at home. It's just him and his dad. His dad is a firm believer in being a "macho" man. It's a part of their culture to be that way. To be feminine or to be soft is not what he wants for his son. It's wrong and he will do anything to have Jules "be a man." But at what cost?
Oh how I loved Jules and his growth in this story. His friends were AMAZING and the support they showed throughout his journey is what you would want for your own child. This isn't just a story of coming out and growing up, it's a story of friendship, love, family and finding your own family along with the ones you care about and those feelings being reciprocated.
From Jules friends in Texas, to the boy (Mat) he connects with on Twitter who lives in LA, to his sister, Jules is surrounded by love. It was pretty special to see. It's just the one person he wants to accept him that brings him down for the most part of his journey. But that's what makes this story a bit more believable. It wasn't all sunshine and roses, but shows that life isn't always perfect. And the way Julián handles his lack of acceptance brought tears to my eyes.
I hope that readers/listeners will give Fifteen Hundred Miles From the Sun a chance. It made me feel for Jules and made me absolutely fall for Mat. I loved their friendship and the way they built their relationship online first. It's so relevant and now for the ages. You can't help but love all of Jules' friends. They made his life positive and easier to handle. AND can I talk about the narrator?? He was fabulous! He captured all the characters with precision and brought the story alive. I felt the journey for this young man and everything he went through. Definitely a story you should check out if you are interested in a coming of age YA book that is real and full of life and love and ups and downs.

Emotional and uplifting book for queer teens.
I loved this book! I think this book will really resonate with queer kids who may be stuck in a family situation where they do not feel safe coming out (I hope they can safely read this!) and adults who were able to be themselves once they left home. I loved the sweet and protective group of friends Julián had and the portrayal of the long distance/online relationship was very timely. This book funny, sad, emotional, and felt real. It really seemed to be specifically written for this current generation of teens, but I was able to enjoy it even with my teen years many decades behind me. It was a sex positive book with discussion between the main characters, and trusted adults in their life, about consent and safe sex.
I listened to the audiobook and while I don’t always love this narrator’s delivery, the way they did all the characters’ voices was so good.
