Fast-paced and simultaneously compelling. The ending has left me feeling a bit skeptical with how it all played out, but overall I enjoyed this.

The book follows the friendship of two boys, both affected by traumatic events, who are both lovable in their own very different ways. 

An easy and heartwarming, but at times heartbreaking, read that explores the struggles of feeling either nothing at all or feeling too deeply.
