Wow! I am a mood reader that tends to stick to the same themes and tropes and avoid others. One that I frequently pass over are tales that are in the "coming of age" category. I have challenged myself to read/listen to books this year that are outside my typical comfort zones and I have discovers a few amazing books. "Dario" is one of the books. There is just so much heart and sadness and fear that start when Dario is 5 and continues to high school. There is so much more I want to know about Dario and his friends that I will be listening to all the books if I can. Highly recommended!
