I turn to the excellent audiobook to get me through hard days.
I just... I keep coming back to this book because it keeps meaning more and new and different things to me at different times in my life. I know it's a young adult book, but I'm 37, and was born with a disability. As a kid I would have given anything to have A's blessing/curse. The story of A's life reminds me of the many different facets of human existence, and helps me feel less alone.

cryleemick's review against another edition
I really liked the concept. I did. And I liked the way the book started off. But the farther I got the more it rubbed me the wrong way.
And then came the things that made me say “Enough”: the horrible fat shaming of Finn. I weigh the same amount as him, and never once have I had trouble walking down aisles or worrying that a chair won’t hold me. A couldn’t even bother to see a shred of decency in Finn.
I was so disappointed because everyone says such great things about David Levithan & he co-wrote one of my favorite books. Now I don’t know if I can ever read that book the same way.
