ericarobyn 's review for:
Wonder
by R.J. Palacio
This book made me sad-cry quite a few times, but more often I found myself happy-crying. This was the second book I have ever read that made me want to stand up and clap once I had finished it.
Though upsetting at times, this book was an absolute joy to read.
Another must-read for EVERYONE.
Five stars!!
Side note:
My only issue with this book was the Justin section, just because of how it was formatted. The exclusion of capitalization and quotes to indicate who was talking drove me nuts.
***Potential Spoilers***
My favorite lines:
"When given the choice between being right or being kind, choose kind.”- Dr Wayne W. Dyer
“You don’t need your eyes to love, right? You just feel it inside you.”
“I think there should be a rule that everyone in the world should get a standing ovation at least once in their lives."
“I didn’t destroy a Death Star or anything like that, but I did just get through the fifth grade. And that’s not easy, even if you’re not me."
