4 stars.

I really enjoyed the unique layout of this book.
Christopher, our main character, was so lovely to read from his perspective.
A great well written book, that was sad and yet heart-warming at the same time.

Still feel conflicted about a neurotypical author writing this book without mentioning any research or people he consulted

Went to see the play in Norway, and I loved it. Read the book. Loved that too! What a cool story.

interesting

A very quick read and definitely different than most novels. I’m not sure how I feel about it. Happy I read it.
