I loved it back when I read it! :)

[Ellen · Rating 4 out of 5]

This was a very enlightening story. Sad but uplifting. I read this a while ago. I personally know people who have suffered from this affliction and that is why I thought if I read it, I might become more informed. Recommend

Another YA favorite from my teen years. This is is about epilepsy. Why do I like such sad books?

although short and somewhat surface level, this book has a realistic, somewhat relatable story for anyone who has been through highschool. I really enjoyed it :)
