A Mango-Shaped Space by Wendy Mass

emotional medium-paced

• Loveable characters? No
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

3.0

This was an easy read, and I wasn't bored while reading it, I  just wasn't excited to pick it back up again after putting it down. I never connected with Mia despite feeling sorry for her struggles. Having no experience with synesthesia, I have no idea how accurate the portrayal is. I'd be interested in seeing it through virtual reality, though!

The book itself was well-written! If you enjoy realistic middle grade literature, give it a try.
