Crash Test by Amy James

4.5

this was an ode to anyone who has ever had a loved one hospitalized, and has had to figure out a way to do things like sleep and eat- anything "normal" while your world is falling around you. its the hospital corridors that you memorize by heart, the image of your loved one at their weakest and most vulnerable, the thought that nothing will be the same, the fear of losing them. its also the constant brain racking trying to remember every conversation. 
this book was that but it was also more 
it was also about healing in so many different ways 
travis and jacob went through insanely traumatizing things but came out on the other side and that was the message ultimately. its that regardless of what will happen I will be okay. 
I loved the growth in this book a lot.

the family that travis created for himself and understanding that some aspects of his relationship wasnt the healthiest and when it came time to address that he didn't shy away from confrontation but his personality didnt overly change too. I really liked that he knew himself and was comfortable with himself and only grew more so and learned to take up more space where as jacob learned to be more sensitive and thoughtful and that he can take up space too but he didnt need to take up all the space to be safe.
