Talking to Alaska- Review

Updated: Sep 2, 2022

Thank you Netgalley and Oneworld Publications for the gifted book.

rating: really liked


All middle schoolers feel a little like that are the lone aliens inhabiting their social spheres, but when Sven and Parker both have their otherness exposed, they have to choose whether to run from reality or embrace it. This story covers normal new school jitters as well as anxiety and chronic illness. Both characters grow immensely over the course of the book as they grow to accept their circumstances instead of rejecting them. I really loved this story and it was only enhanced by the inclusion of a cute service dog, Alaska.
