«Amé a Jacob» is the young adult novel by Katherine Paterson, published by Noguer y Caralt Editores in paperback (223 pages, in Spanish).
Louise grows up on an island in Chesapeake Bay feeling overshadowed by her twin sister: at school, in her mother's affection, and in love. Louise tries to find her own path and discover who she is beyond that comparison. A story about identity, sibling envy, and the need to decide one's own life.
The work is also known as 'Jacob Have I Loved'; this Spanish edition was published in 2003.
Recommended reading for young people aged 14 and up, especially for those seeking stories of growth, family, and sibling relationships.
