I took a chance on reading this. I wasn't sure how I would take to it and when I received it and started I was shocked to say the least. It's an easy book to get into. I was taken by not only Simon and Amy but Katie as well.
I think there are a lot of young adults who will be able to relate to all of the younger characters in the book and that's a great thing in this case. Even with the problems the good comes shining through.
I don't know much about foreign languages but it seemed like something was missing somewhere. I can't explain any better than that. Little things, tiny even, seemed off to me.
There was one part when the girls little brother was said to be "barking" around her ankles. Was it meant to say her dog? I read an ARC so anything is possible but I wanted to add that in.
For a first book Converse did a great job and I'd definitely read another book of his if he writes again.
