Okay, for a fair warning this book is so infuriating. You are angry at Noah, you are angry at the parents, angry at the medical professionals, the court system. All off it.
Did I think this book would make me rethink my thoughts on p**os, no. Did it? Sort of, I mean I have empathy for all humans, with some exceptions. However, I do believe there are few instances of rehabilitation, in Noahs case he knows he is terminal, so I respect him for recognizing that.
Thats the nuance of being a human, seeing humans for their every flay and glimmer of good.
I wanted to yell at everyone a million times in this book. I also wanted to hug everyone and tell them its not going to be okay, but thats how it is.
The dad though, I knew. He either started it or was the same.
