In a way, I'm glad I'm much older than the intended audience, because I think if I were still 12 years old this would have hit me too hard. I found my inner middle schooler relating so much to the types of thoughts Noah had. While there are definitely heavy subjects discussed in the book, I think the overall story and tone is hopeful and it was refreshing to see Noah have both supportive parents and accepting,  open-hearted friends.
