I love when “kids books” don’t hold back. The theme of empathy is central to this story, from hospital treatment, addiction, and loss. During her summer at a university for her dad’s futurist job, Addie experiences virtual reality for the first time. While initially using it as an escape, she soon begins to see new potential to help others. It was an easy and enjoyable read with good characterization and a positive message of growth.
There are some books that you hit a certain point and you’re hooked and you’re going to finish this book as quickly as possible. Maybe it’s on the first few pages. Maybe it’s halfway through. It never came for me in this book. Overall I felt it kind of slow and the characters mostly meh. Plus the overall premise of a girl who gave up on love after being hurt but changing her mind after a short period of time with a man who’s too good to be true isn’t creative or inspiring. If you need an entertaining airport read or a beach read this book will probably do the trick.
