It's 2am and i have finished The Space We're In by Katya Balen which I received through netgalley. The last middle grade that turned me into a mush of tears was Wonder and I thought nothing could beat it but The Space We're in did and I spent the last half of the book in tears and I mean tears. The Space We're in tells the story of Frank who is 10 and his brother who is autistic is 5 and is about to start school which is the basis of the first part of the story. The in the second part a tragic event happens which changes Frank and Max's lives and you wonder if things will ever be the same. I found Katya's writing so respectfully about a subject that she seems to understand very well and for this reason I have to give this wonderful book a solid 5 stars.
