Marcelo in the real world by Francisco X. stork

(5/5) stars 

my first hard cover book :')

click here for the book's summary.


you know those books that when you're reading you don't hear a thing around you ? those books that you just know you gonna love. you know what you'll rate it and what you'll say after words from the first 50 pages.

this is the kind of thing that happened to me in this book

Okay so let me start by saying : 

why the HELL is this book not famous ??!



nothing annoys me more than finishing a book and loving it and then open good reads and see how under ratted it is it's so dis pointing ! this book is just plain perfect all the characters are so real and even the ones that only showed up once you feel like you know everything about them.


So Marcelo is the most adorable boy i have ever SEEN ! 

“Boy, you really break things down, don't you?''

"Some say it is an illness.''(< -Marcelo)

''We should all be so ill.” 


first the way he talks about him self in the third person i found really adorable idk exactly why but i loved it. some books try to make a character innocent and end up making a: clumsy , stupid , dork needing a wake up slap across the face....but Marcelo however is the exact opposite he's : the nicest , most adorable person ever..that makes you feel like slapping yourself because you're should be as kind as him...

"then why with Marcelo?" -Marcelo

"I don't know. Do you always ask so many questions? it just seems okay, that's all" -jasmine 

"maybe Jasmine doesn't see Marcelo as a man." -Marcelo


I just love reading about illnesses and conditions that idk about  it's like seeing a world through someone else's eyes.

i really recommend this book and I hate how underrated it is i never read any books about autism before so that was a great as a first book about the subject. 

i can totally see my self rereading this book.


“The right note sounds right and the wrong note sounds 

wrong.” 



this review is way shorter then i planned but when i love a book so much i end up not knowing what to say to describe how much i love it and i end up with a short review 
when you find a short review it doesn't mean i don't love it!

see you soon :3 !


Question of the day:

what would you do if you knew someone just like Marcelo in real life?
