Title: The Art of Adapting
Author: Cassandra Dunn
Genre: Contemporary fiction
Pages: 354
Published: 2014
Lana is a recently separated mother of two teenagers who decides to have her brother, Matt, who has Asperger's syndrome, move in with them. In spite of and maybe because of his personality quirks, Matt is able to see the struggles his niece and nephew are going through that Lana is unable or unwilling to acknowledge.
I was so impressed with this first-time novelist's debut. The characters were so well written and real and it was really cute how Matt was able to connect and help with the family's problems in his own way, given his social limitations. I would highly recommend this and look forward to reading more from this author in the future.
5/5 stars
