Goodbye Stranger by Rebecca Stead

5.0

---

I read this book for the first time in mifdle school and have reread it twice since and it's crazy how well it hols up even as an adult. It's well written and very tender and compassionate. It's not condescending despite the younger target demographic and it really transports you back to middle school (which is usually a bad thing but still) highly recommend for a comforting but still engaging.
