I received this book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
Denver is a difficult to like protagonist but not because of xyr autism but because much of xyr self loathing and questioning resonates with much of what I don’t like about myself. Xyr wittiness and desire to save everyone was admirable. Ezra was great deuteragonist. I found issue with how quickly the relationship between the two of them moved but Ezra voicing those concerns as well made up for the fact. Outside of the characters this was a likable story mixed with a bit of peculiarity. The ending was wrapped up nicely without feeling too rush and made the story feel complete.
