The Dangerous Art of Blending In by Angelo SurmelisMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
This was gut-wrenching. I find stories of parental abuse to be very disturbing, but I also can't stop reading them once I get started, at least not until I know whether or not the child survives and/or escapes it.
This is also a story of friendship and first love and finding your voice in the worst of circumstances. There are brief flashes of gorgeousness between all the painful moments, and those moments are so hopeful that it pulls you through the rough patches.
