Great story, I really felt bad for Calliope. I loved the friendship that blossomed. The ending did have me emotional for her. A great read, especially for JF.

This is a short young adult read about a girl with Tourette's. It had a positive message and was heart warming to read.

Powerful powerful book. A book that should be in every middle grade library.
I can listen to the beautiful language of this beautiful character all day...bravo, Ellie Terry!
The book was written from 2 different perspectives. One perspective was written in verse and 1 was written in pros. Loved the story and the format of it.
Calli moves to a new school after her mom breaks up with a new boyfriend, and just as at her past schools she continues to keep her tourettes a secret and they cause her to be left out and made fun of. Other than the neighbor boy who will pay attention to her as long as no one else is around, but no one can know that he likes her.
I enjoyed the format of the story and the sometimes changing POV of the story. Would recommended for middle/high/adult readers.

Cute story told in verse about at girl struggling with Tourettes.
So lovely I couldn't put it down! A heartwrenching struggle with multiple moves and Tourette's shows the power of friendship and speaking your truth.
A novel in verse about a girl with Tourette’s - powerful language and description about her experience moving to a new town and connecting while trying to blend in. Using this in a choice for a windows and mirrors poetry until.
