Review:
Mazey Eddings is quickly becoming one of my favorite authors! Each of her books explains either neurodivergence or mental illness in such a way that makes the reader understand the complexities in an easily digestible way! Tilly In Technicolor is no different with the female main character (Tilly) having ADHD and the male main character (Oliver) having autism.
Thoughts:
-This was such a fun YA romance! The characters were all so lovable. It felt like a whirlwind adventure in a warm way
-Tilly’s ADHD and how it makes her brain work is explained extremely well. She is such a lovable character. It's refreshing to see a young character in a book not going to an ivy league school like most seem to, but instead choosing what is best for her, which is not going to college at all. College isn't for everyone and I don't see that represented in books nearly enough
-The dynamic of Tilly’s family was incredibly interesting to read. Not feeling good enough in the eyes of a parent is something most people can relate to and it was refreshing to watch Tilly grow more confident and stand up to her mom more as the book went on
-It made my heart happy watching Tilly and Oliver open up to each other. They understood and related to one another in a way no one else has been able to in their past
-Oliver’s relationship with his sister and best friend had me laughing out loud! They were so fun and supportive of him
-The writing was immersing and the dialogue was engaging, which is why I love Eddings so much!
-I am not neurodivergent, but I know many people that are - this book helped me understand the complexities and specifics of their minds more
Tilly In Technicolor was such a sweet tooth read and it made me so happy! I highly recommend picking up any of Mazey Eddings’ books!
Thank you Netgalley, Mazey Eddings, and Wednesday Books for a gifted copy of this book in exchange for an honest review!
