mindsplinters 's review for:

See You in the Cosmos by Jack Cheng

4.0

---

ARC. This was so very, very sweet and such an usual format. At first, I worried that the "recording" format would get to be forced feeling and gimmicky but it fit so well with Alex's voice and the flow of things that I fell in love with it. Alex is 100% charming and so recognizable. Clearly a ND child and more than likely autistic but it's just a fact and no one ever labels or obsesses over his differences. Just like the reader, those around him are charmed and come to accept him as he is. At turns heartbreaking and laugh-out-loud, this book was lovely.
