5.0
*I received a copy of this book on NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you to the author, publisher, and NetGalley for this opportunity*
Tender and heartwarming, BROTHER DO YOU LOVE ME, gives the readers a glimpse into the lives of brothers Reuben and Manni. Manni, the legal guardian of his younger brother Reuben, receives a heartbreaking text asking “brother. do. you. love. me.” prompting a swift removal from Manni’s group home to in England to the quiet countryside. There, the two brothers fall into a domestic routine of mealtimes and walks in crisp winter air while Manni tries to tenderly restore Reuben’s broken spirit.
The amount of love woven into every word of the story is palpable, and is a beautiful monument to true brotherhood. Manni’s deep rooted love for his brother, his desire for Reuben’s happiness and fulfillment, is the core of this memoir– but Reuben is absolutely the heart.
