I can’t even pinpoint where it went wrong. I just wasn’t engaged in the book at all. Not the characters, relationships or plot. 
It deals with the topics it addresses well, yet somehow nothing really touches me. It’s a shame, really.

Loved this one, as I did with the two before. There's rough topics, sadness and death, but there's also love, hope, friendship and healing. I also love the disability rep in this.
