"I sometimes wondered if people had a tendency not to give me their names or ask me for mine because of their fear of getting too close... too close to something so different."
The plot handles some very serious topics which may seem normal not to discuss but we do.
Characters who have been discriminated because of disability, body shamed and bullied; Tourette's Syndrome are represented in this story.
It's still quite relevant and so well presented I say!
The characters, the young and the adult ones, are quite convincing and realistic.
The mom is the best. Wish all moms would be like her and protect their child without hurting their feelings and unrealistic expectations.
I love the writing so much.
Once you start the book, it would be difficult to stop reading. The characters are so well developed. The story gets better and better.
Want to pick up the sequel (yes, there's one!) next.
A perfect book to start reading with.
Recommending the book indeed.
