We Are the Ants

So, I have very mixed feelings about this book. By themselves, the topics of grief and guilt are well spoken but I think that it sometimes got shallow and I couldn't connect with the characters. I have to say it: Diego felt like a manic pixie dream boy who appeared out of thin air and I would've found it believable that he was an alien tbh. He befriends Henry as if he was his guardian angel and it doesn't sit right with me. Loved some ideas I have to say and I'm glad this changed so many people's life, but it was not the case for me sns

Dévoré en l'espace de deux jours, une histoire touchante emplie de moments difficiles, mais qui sont affrontés sans se voiler la face. Une histoire de solitude, de deuil, d'espoirs, de peur de soi même, de peur de l'engagement, mais aussi de harcèlement, de sentiments, ... Un beau récit adolescent teinté d'enlèvements alien.
