Faking Normal by Courtney C. Stevens
5.0
I thorughly enjoyed the book. I love the friendship between Bodee and Lex. But more importantly i love how precious it was to both of them. That really made my heart soar.
As far as the subject matter of this book, its always difficult to write and as a reader I think we sometimes expect a perfect an ending to be perfect and everything is okay. I like the ending of this its a gentle lul into a lake of good feelings.
The absolutely best part I think, is the fact that in this novel, you get to see how not alone she is, and how the people close to her can see her pain. I think their ability to see it, yet not push her to open up is very important especially to someone as stubborn ad Lex. In addition to that you get to see the burden lifted when she finally realized she didnt have to do it alone.
I myself may have expected this novel to be a little more like Speak, if you havent read it please do, but i do understand that not every victim is the same, some stop talking and some can't shut up. I think the fact that Lex held it together, is tragic but understandable given the circumstances.
Bodee himself is the victim we dont see very often. He himself is a victim that rarley getd talked about be cause he is a man. But its so important that we see his pain and tears. I love Bodee. He is my hero. He is strong and resilient and everything she needed.
They're complimentary.
I loved this book. I thought it was beautiful and in a way soft spoken.
