This book did a good job of making me feel for the
characters. You can tell especially for Simon that he is working through some
complex feelings and is being pulled in a number of directions. I like that
connection to the main person.
The story itself was an interesting one and I feel like it challenges the traditional young adult norm of a story a little bit. I appreciate that it makes me familiar with topics I would have not been previously familiar with.
Happy Reading!
