I hated the ending.

I was hoping the dad was alive

overall I enjoyed the book. It was interesting to learn that even tho he was “non verbal” he could communicate.

I ended up really enjoying this book and will think about it for a long time. Has kind of a John Green-type of mystery + psychology vibe, but ends up being serious life lessons and tackles ableism and racism in a really human way.
