Experience Tumblr like never before
BLURB: I have no secrets of my own. I can’t do anything without someone knowing about it. I can see, though, and I can hear, and sometimes people forget that. Sometimes people talk about me as if I’m not there. I hate that. And sometimes people tell me their secrets. Dan did. And I can’t tell anyone. I wish I could do something.
This book is a personal favourite of mine and I feel it isn’t appreciated enough. The protagonist (main character) Jemma has severe quadriplegic cerebal palsy and the book really opened my eyes as to what life is like for people with the condition, as I didn’t know very much about it before. While the plot isn’t amazing, the characters are realistic and likeable and overall it’s a very positive and interesting book to read. (I also met Penny Joelson and have a signed copy of the book :)
I would recommend it to readers aged 11-15 and I think it definitely is worth a read.
