A Kind of Spark
by Elle McNicoll
I thought this was a brilliant book, and especially impressive being a debut! It’s short at 175 pages and took me a few hours to read.
I loved reading about Addie and her family and friends. I love reading about neurodiverse characters and seeing more neurodiverse authors getting the love they deserve.
This was such a sweet read, but handled some difficult and important topics well, and was a brilliant story. It’s difficult to read about a child who was punished by some people for her differences rather than celebrated and supported. But that’s the reality sometimes and needs to be addressed.
Overall a brilliant book and one I’d recommend
