I loved almost all of the characters, especially Alex. He was an incredible friend to Jordyn and I immediately fell for him and how much of an amazing person he was overall. We have Phillip, Jordyn's autistic brother and the way he was portrayed was spot on. The author really showed how it is for autistic is and how frustrated they get when someone doesn't understand them. At times, it was very emotional because you could really feel for Phillip. It is sad to say that the way people reacted to Phillip in the story is how we react to seeing an autistic person and I'm glad the author didn't downplay this at all.
"[...] I'm going to work on loving you out loud.. I'm going to work on living out loud."
This is a really strong and eye-opening story. Jordyn gave a speech at the end that opened my eyes even more to autism and it is a great message for kids, teens and adults to read.This review was originally posted on Latte Nights Reviews
