This story is very slow moving but beautifully written nonetheless. I’m not really sure what the point of the book was tbh. And the ending scene sort of just happens and then the book is over. I’m left wanting more but also not really wanting to read anymore because it was just a sad story that evoked nothing deeper than sadness and anger at the ableism.
