Oh, my heart! Dealt with a lot of issues important for a middle-grade audience to read about. Loved the relationship between the two boys, the secret language was great. This book really picked up in the last half, specifically the climax where Jeremy’s father has his alcoholism breakdown in the restaurant, that had me INVESTED.
So yeah, GREAT read, would recommend.
