about the book: Robot girl, a code name for Beatrice moves to Baltimore and meets Ghost Boy, a code name for Jonah. They bond together by listening to the same radio show every night.
my thoughts: If you're hoping for romance, well you're just going to be disappointed, then. This was extremely weird. The beginning, at first, I was thinking that everyone must be crazy. I haven't read a book where all the charcters act as odd as they could. It was completely mind-blowing and it made me think I was the one crazy for questioning the characters' sanity.
But after reading it- I think I felt I learned something of life. The friendship with Beatrice and Jonah was so interconnected with each other that it was fantastic not to feel upset that you don't have that kind of relationship with someone.
Overall, five stars, because on an emotional stand point it deserved them.
