Holly fuck. Sorry but…. Okay. First of all, thank you Net Galley for the audio arc of the book. I, for once, have read the summary. But I was like “cone on it’s a middle grade book. It won’t be that hard”. Ah. Joke’s on me. This book made me cry in the street and it was hard not crying in the bus. It’s an emotional m, hard and powerful book. And yet it’s hopeful. It talks about grief, family and friendship. It also talks about mental health and the fact that nobody should be ashamed of going to therapy.
Anyway, started august with this book and honestly o don’t know if I’ll like any book more this month.
