MixedI think it's a good introduction to synesthesia but if anyone has any other ones that I could especially recommend to Liam that they feel is a better representation.

LovedI had no idea that was a thing at that time and I loved this book so much, so much that I still hold on to it and would like to re-read it now as an adult to see how it reads at this point, but it just- she just goes on this journey of like, people finding out that she has synesthesia and kind of what that means for her because it's a thing that a lot of people I feel like aren't even aware exists but it was dealt with really well in this story.
