I think I’ll think about this book for a long time. 
I think this story is really beautiful, and beautifully written. A sober fever dream that somehow feels real and true. 
I think that so much resonated with me from both Aldo and Regan my book is all marked up with notations like a well studied textbook. 
I think people that’s struggle with this book maybe haven’t struggled with their own inner monologue and neurodivergence in the same way. 
Mental illness comes in all shapes, sizes, and colors. But so does love, and in my opinion that’s really what this book is about.
