ahhh i don't know what to say. it took me forever to start this, and then it took me way too long to finish this because of uni and finals (and an unfortunate incident where someone put the library book on hold before i was done with it lmao) but this was so good!! you know when you're not that far into a book but you can just *tell* you're going to love it? that's what happened

i think the best way to describe this book is "full of emotions." Sam and Avery deserved so much better 😭 i absolutely loved the relationships between the De Laineys - there was so much chaos and warmth, messiness and brightness. i haven't read very many books with autism rep (something i'm trying to fix), but i thought this was really well written
