A review by emleemay
The Invisible Life of Ivan Isaenko by Scott Stambach
2.0
Update: The author of this book has repeatedly contacted a GR member, asking her to change a negative review, which he called "mean-spirited". On the exact same day that he sent his last message, this profile appeared on Goodreads. Her location is San Diego like the author, and she immediately added the author, before beginning to attack the aforementioned reviewer. She even accused the reviewer of wearing "the badge of your autistic son on your shirt like a good martyr". I don't know about you, but this is a great way to make sure I never pick up one of his books again.

I read this book. I enjoyed this book. I thought it was much more enjoyable than [b:The Fault in Our Stars|11870085|The Fault in Our Stars|John Green|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1360206420s/11870085.jpg|16827462], which it is being compared to. But when I came to the Goodreads page to write my review, I saw this person's perspective on it: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/1702601711
After that, I couldn't - in good conscience - write a positive review. I'll leave my rating as is, to reflect my initial experience, but that post really made me question how I viewed the story.
