This book is told in a first person stream-of-thought style from the pov of our 12 year-old protagonist, and I'm still figuring out how much I enjoyed that. Two things I am sure of, though, is that I would absolutely die for Simon, and that this book will keep you guessing until the very end over whether Simon is a reliable narrator or not. I overall did enjoy this and will be picking up more of Roland Smith's work when I can!
