A really sweet YA novel that is themati ally a coming of age and romance journey. I enjoyed it and found the characters well developed. I especially appreciate the dyslexia representation.

I really enjoyed reading this book because I was a considered a nerd in school. I felt bad for Reggie because he could not be a confident person in front of his family. I love that Reggie and Delilah met during a holiday especially when Delilah needed a friend. I wish Reggie used the new found confidence he had with Delilah with the rest of his family. I listen to this book via audio so I had to get use to the narrators. I feel like Reggie could have been honest with Delilah because she would have been his friend regardless. I rarely read YA books but this book was really good. I wish I had a book like this when I was in high school. I was happy that Reggie finally told his brother about the way he makes him feel when he starts roasting him about the type of things he likes such as D&D. I want to read more books by this author.

This is a great YA novel about learning to take up space and unlearning the habits born out of fear. I would have loved it as a teenager.
