Opinion:
Overall, I really enjoyed reading this book. I like how the narrator of the story, Colton, told the story in a way in which it felt like he was having a conversation with the reader. The language used in the narration felt realistic to how a teen would talk, and this made the book stand out compared to other novels I've read. In addition, I think the author did a great job of using flashbacks at the start of the book to paint a picture of what Austin and Colton's life were like. This helped me understand Colton's background and why he reacted to things in certain ways throughout the book. The plot of the story was very interesting, and I think there was a good amount of suspense in the book without feeling like the story was dragged out. Lastly, I think the book did a good job of portraying how life can be for children who have siblings who are non-verbal or have other conditions. I would highly recommend this book for readers looking for a realistic fiction mystery novel!
