The List of Real Things by Sarah Moore Fitzgerald

I received a copy of this book in exchange for a honest review
Definitely more on the younger side of YA, but there is something warm and homely and comforting about The List of Real Things. It's a quick read, barely over 200 pages, and looks primarily at the relations between two sisters, one who wishes to fit in amongst her peers and another who's a bit more quirky. The writing style and narration was lovely and the story flowed well, never getting too heavy or bogged down. The small hints of magical realism were just enough to add an extra layer of excitement without becoming overdone and unrealistic. A sweet read indeed.
