3.25 stars - I believe this just might be the first book I've book I've ever read in second person, and it took my brain a second to settle into the style without it detracting from the story. The protagonist's unending curiosity and desire to learn made for an interesting and charming main character while also playing perfectly into the 'little alien' description. However, aside from the protagonist and about three other people, I found it incredible difficult to like anyone else in the story. The adults at large seemed to have never interacted with a child in their life, and most of them should probably not be allowed around them any long. Maybe there's a bit of an unreliable narrator situation at play, but it made for a frustrating read whenever those characters were involved. Overall I found this to be an interesting - yet almost mundane - tale with a unique storytelling style.
