The Funny Thing about Norman Foreman by Julietta Henderson

4.0

The Funny Thing About Norman Foreman turned out to be a pleasant surprise for me. Given the synopsis, I expected it to be emotional, but I really didn't expect to connect with these characters in a way that made it thoroughly compelling. I even found myself connecting with 12-year old Norman. In fact, Julietta Henderson made every character relatable in some way even if I didn't really have anything in common with them. This one is a story about family, friendship, loyalty, learning, and determination. It's very well written and engaging - just an all-around impressive debut novel.
