The Thing with Feathers by McCall Hoyle
4.0
I really loved this book. I thoroughly enjoyed Meet the Sky, by the same author, so I was already looking forward to reading this one, and it did not disappoint.
Emilie is a young girl who lost her dad only a few years prior, and now she's about to go back to school at her local high school after years of homeschooling. And If that wasn't enough to cause stress, this poor teenager feels like she's drifting away from her mom, AND oh yeah....she has a seizure disorder.
The story was written beautifully, in my opinion, and very true to life. Okay yeah, Emilie does get paired with the cutest boy at school right off the bat, and yes, he turns out to be a nice guy, but hey...it could happen!
Overall though, I loved the story and the characters. And I will definitely be looking for more from this author in the future!
