This is the first book ever (definitely as an adult) that has made me cry proper tears! What an emotional ride, that was. Loved all of the messages about what sort of person to be and the importance of kindness that were baked in. The voices of the characters just felt so real also. I don't really read middle grade but I'll certainly be looking out for more!
