I met Libba Bray at the first of the month and I told her I was surprised the last book didn't get a cover change. She rolled her eye and said that the cover changes for the series has been one of the biggest headaches of her career. Also one of the coolest authors I've ever met.

I, for one, love Dear Evan Hansen, but can see what you mean, even if I don’t personally agree with you. The book and the musical are different, and I do like the musical more, and I think you should listen to the soundtrack if you’re still considering it. It just holds a special place in my heart, because I listened to the soundtrack after reading the book and that got me into musical theatre, and I saw the show last summer. It’s just a special musical to me, and the book is good, too. The musical itself is so inspiring and left me in tears three times while watching the musical. But I will respect your opinion.

I can completely understand why Things I Should Have Known would not be a favorite and I could see why you would want to get rid of it. However, I love that book so much because I have a sister who has autism, it was a book that I related to more than any other book. I felt so represented and in a situation like mine that isn't something I can often find. For some reason, I felt the need to point this out. I would definitely recommend this if you are looking for autism representation, each case is different but I found it to be very accurate.
