The Reason I Jump: The Inner Voice of a Thi… von Tom Picasso
4 stars - written by a 13 year old boy in Japan who is autistic. It mostly uses a question and answer format with a few stories included. The book is well written, well narrated, and interesting. The author expresses himself well and you will come away from the book with many useful and helpful insights. It's a short book, but the length seems just right.
I FREAKING LOVED THIS BOOK!
It shattered me, made me cry and weep and sob so hard my head hurt.
I spent the time I read this book like I was a zombie, it was as if I were the one grieving.
It was so raw, Griffin's grief hit me so deep I felt every part of it.
Griffin did wrong, a lot of wrong things, and many of them were irrational, but they made sense in a weird twisted way.
The biggest plot twist in this book was Wade -who btw is my absolute favourite character in this whole damned book- and how things went out between him and Griff.
I really did not expect it, I mean I considered Griff meeting someone else, I considered him getting with Jackson (despite that being quite fucked up), I also considered him ending up alone, but I really didn't even consider Wade an option.
Which is what made me even more excited when that was revealed.
I also loved how the story kept going between present and past, it made it easier to understand how deep Griff was hurting once I knew the history he and Theo had, and it also made the whole story more relatable.
All in all this was one of the few contemporaries that earned a 5 stars for me.
I'm definitely picking up more books by Adam Silvera!… (mehr)
