This book was a wonder. 
 I was swept away by the characters and plot. 
 I was impressed with the utter rawness of this novel. 
 Honestly, I don't know where to go from there. I suppose that I could line it point form, in my classic way. 
 Pro: 
 1. The theme. It was amazingly well executed. In many more serious novels, the theme gets in the way of the story. In this case, the story is solid, and the theme builds it up. I loved that. 
 2.The characters. Auggie was darling. His humour, the lightness with which he took himself, and his general personality and cleverness was refreshing and charming. 
 Summer, as well, was a good character. 
 Jack. 
 Via. I loved her, actually. She seemed very real to me. It can't be hard having a younger brother with a craniofacial abnormality. 
 Those two things really sum up this novel. The only negative thing about it was the style in which it was written... at first. I didn't enjoy the seemingly sloppy formatting, but as the book continued, I gained an appreciation for the style. I wouldn't say it was my favorite, but it didn't ruin the book either. 
 I will admit that this book reads bit younger, but it's still a good read for youngsters, teens, and adults. Recommend it? Yes, I would. Highly.
