4.0

I found this a very emotional read as someone who has an Autistic nephew, I could see this for what was happening. The emotions in this story were at the forefront of this character centric novel and the plotline was secondary to this. Depicting Alice's life - which is a very small world - and how she manages this and the all of the emotions that go along with a Autism diagnosis. However one of the relationships developed and this did initially surprise me however I can see how this has happened reflecting on the book now that I have finished. This book includes strained family bonds, infidelity, grief and how all of these things can bring a family back together and make them stronger.
