The Deepest Breath by Meg Grehan
5.0
Now THIS is how you write a free-verse novel.
I love this book to pieces. While I cannot relate to the struggle of coming out, I can relate to Stevie's urgency in wanting to know everything. Her anxiety about not knowing what she is feeling combined with her anxiety over her mother's well-being culminated into a feeling I could relate with. I found myself in tears toward the end of the book because I saw so much of myself in Stevie.
This is a great book to give to kids so they can read and learn to empathize with those that struggle with coming out and those who have anxiety. Everything about this story is perfect and I cannot recommend it enough.
