I didn’t love the plot, but I thought the characters were a lot of fun 🙂

This sounds like a fantastic read! Adding it to my TBR list.

Nope not at all! That’s why I didn’t mention the mansion next to her name- knew that wouldn’t work. It’s a fun, light novel.

I didn’t get that feeling for Frank. Instead it was very much a push/pull of wanting to hug him and wanting to tell him to be quiet. Not having any experience w ASD I can only guess at how it would make you feel. Love, frustration, compassion.

I think it’s really easy to caricature those characters a la Rain Man. Sounds like this wasn’t the case. Might investigate this one, but after TOB. 😉

I’m kinda on the fence as to how much Inreakiy want to read it. Since it’s a debut, I might. AAARRRGGGHHH!! Too little time for all the books!!

And – does sound very much like Harper Lee except I can’t see H.L. in a modern hilltop LA home – ha!
