rballenger's review against another edition
3.0
Type of read: Commuter (listened to and from work)
What made me pick it up: One of the TN R.E.A.D.S Challenges for March is to read a book with flowers on the cover. I was looking up some poetry and found 'Forget Me Not.' I liked the description and that it would fit my reading challenge.
Overall rating: 'Forget Me Not' is a charming and simplistic story that tackles hard subjects like fitting in, accepting yourself for who you are, and being confident to speak up. I had absolutely zero expectations coming into reading this book and I was pleasantly surprised. Very glad I picked this one up to fulfill my TN R.E.A.D.S Challenge.

I’ll have to remember this one when I have tweens/middle schoolers. Would be great to read together and discuss how to not be an A hole.

Felt wistful and nostalgic, wanting something to remind me of being younger.

~ Heart-Warming Middle Grade Read ~
I really enjoyed this book!! Another random library audiobook, but I’m super glad I found it!!! The Tourette discussions and plot was super well done and I really loved reading it!! It being in-verse didn’t seem super necessary to me, but it didn’t take away from anything either so no problem for me there!
•
If you need something easy and short to read, I’d definitely recommend!

Loved this book! The style and the emotions it brought up and now I understand Tourette’s syndrome much more. Thank you, Ellie Terry, for reminding readers to never hide who they are. It’s also beautiful book about friendship.

When Calliope Snow got diagnosed with Tourette’s syndrome, she was happy to have a name for all the weird things she did.
