Every Soul a Star is a 2008 novel for children and young adults by Wendy Mass. Taking turns in first person from each of the main characters' point of view, it follows the stories of Jack, an confident-lacking 13-year-old who is slightly overweight, Ally, an almost-13-year-old homeschooled girl who wants to be an astronomer, and Bree, whose life goal is to be on the cover of Seventeen before she is seventeen. They all meet and see an eclipse of the sun together while learning about what's truly important in life and becoming better people.
