Wonder by R.J. Palacio
4.0
Fun fact: I loved my friends copy of this book (it was really floppy so the pages were smooth) and she gave me her copy so that I could read it over the summer. Over the summer I found a different copy of the book (a lot stiffer) and bought it for myself. However, when the summer was over and I gave her the copy that was stiff because I wanted the other... Just confessed to a crime?
Anyway, this book was so powerful, the story was easy to read and made me feel so sad at the bullying Auggie went through as a young kid. But it was also really uplifting seeing how different people helped him along the way.
When the movie came out, I jumped at the opportunity to watch it and must say, I was not disappointed. I thought they followed the book really well and didn't notice any plot points missed.
Overall, a really beautiful story and recommend to anyone!
