Astronomy-loving Calliope June has Tourette syndrome, so she sometimes makes faces or noises that she doesn't mean to make. When she and her mother move yet again, she tries to hide her TS. But it isn't long before the kids at her new school realize she's different. Only Calliope's neighbor, who is also the popular student body president, sees her as she truly is--an interesting person and a good friend. But is he brave enough to take their friendship public?

As Calliope navigates school, she must also face her mother's new relationship and the fact that they might be moving--again--just as she starts to make friends and finally accept her differences.

5 (Perfeito)

Injustiça e bullying me pegam muito e nesse livro ainda mostra que até a micro violência machuca, e machuca muito.

Me peguei chorando várias vezes, porque a autora soube demonstrar muito o sentimento de ser tratada mal simplesmente por ser diferente.

E acho que ser um livro own voice (a autora assim como a menina principal tem a Síndrome de Tourette) o tornou ainda mais real.

Um livro de narrativa poética super rápido e que recomendo muito.
