This beautiful story is told part in verse, in alternating viewpoints. The story of a girl with Tourette's who has been convinced to hide her illness at new school after new school. Her and her mother have moved 10 times. The girl hopes this time she can make a best friend. I fell in love with this girl. How she clings to her hope, despite being moved over and over again. She longs to be enough for her mother, just her. Have her mom not need another boyfriend, another man in her life. This book was a beautiful story to listen to, the story flows from this narrator's mouth like a song. I just loved it.

Cute book. :)
I enjoyed the characters the most. They made me remember being 12.
The setting was okay.
The plot was nice.
I don't know much about Tourette syndrome. I enjoyed this book as a new perspective.

Forget Me Not was a beautiful and heartwarming middle grade novel! Calli's mother constantly falls in and out of love, and they move each time she does, which only makes it harder to make friends as a girl with Tourette Syndrome. I loved the #ownvoice representation of Tourette Syndrome, the honest look at the struggle to fit in when you're different, and the lovely poetic writing.
