Beschreibung

A heartbreaking yet uplifting story of grief about a boy who has lost everything, but finds new hope drawing in the shadows of a hospital. Features a thirty-two-page graphic novel.

Andrew Brawley was supposed to die that night, just like the rest of his family.

Now he lives in the hospital, serving food in the cafeteria, hanging out with the nurses, sleeping in a forgotten supply closet. Drew blends in to near invisibility, hiding from his past, his guilt, and those who are trying to find him. His only solace is in the world of the superhero he’s created—Patient F.

Then, one night, Rusty is wheeled into the ER, half his body burned by hateful classmates. Rusty’s agony calls out to Drew like a beacon, pulling them both together though all their pain and grief. In Rusty, Drew sees hope, happiness, and a future for both of them. A future outside of the hospital, and away from their pasts.

But to save Rusty, Drew will have to confront Death, and life will have to get worse before it gets better. And by telling the truth about who he really is, Drew risks destroying any chance of a future.

I thought this would just be a casual, slightly depressing read. A strong 4/5 is what I thought even while reading it. The characters are build amazingly, I really felt like I knew them. And the romance was so soft and sweet and I really got into it and I'm picky when it comes to romance. I gotta say it didn't surprise me, I was three quarters through and guessed a twist and was like "oh well, I knew anyway, strong 4/5 still" but then the ending came and I was just gone. I was so surprised with the turn this book took. It featured some comic panels, because Andrew is working on a comic, which was super cool overall. It also ended with a comic panel and it was so damn touching I teared up. I cried reading like five times in my life so that is something special. It's just a very touching book, that deals with real life questions and dives deeper than most stories do. It never gets stereotypical or weird and there's real humour and heartache in these pages. I would recommend it to anyone interested in contemporary YA, definitely one of the best books out there.
