Thanks to Wednesday Books for the free copy of this book.
- TILLY IN TECHNICOLOR might be a perfect book. I adored everything about it. It's the exact right blend of YA rom-com and serious coming of age. Tilly and Oliver's ADHD and autism, respectively, are portrayed with loving nuance. And it's just a good, fun read.
- I adored watching Tilly and Oliver learn how to understand and accommodate each other as they got to know each other better, which starkly highlighted how others tried to force them to be people they weren't.

I loved the neurodiverse representation in this book! Tilly's ADHD and Oliver's autism are so accurately portrayed, the positive as well as the negative aspects. At first, they find each other annoying, but as they learn that they're more alike than different and begin to understand each other's needs, a mutual attraction develops. Their communication and respect for each other was so sweet and sincere. Their interactions with their supportive friends were fun and heartwarming. Tilly's relationships with her mom and sister weren't as positive as Oliver's were with his, but she improved these by learning to self-advocate. Reading about them overcoming their struggles, enjoying success, and experiencing first love made for a sweet, feel-good story that I didn't want to end.
