Imagine your a 16 year old girls who has just lost her sight. Who has be plunged into darkness in more way than one. This is what happens to Tessa in this story. Tessa is struggling to comes to terms with her disability when Weston comes along. He has a disability of his own, but Tessa can't see that, and he uses his experience to bring her out of the darkness and teaches her there is more than one way to see.

This is a story of growth, a story where two people save each other from their own barriers.

If you like A Fault in Their Stars or Everything, Everything you are going to love this! It is grasping from the outset. Each chapter lures you in more. You get tangled within the relationship. You get heartbroken from hearing the thoughts of Weston about his disability. And you feel joy when Tessa sees past it all!

I thoroughly enjoyed this read....and will definitely be reading it again soon. It is written so it's easy to read and the storyline is simple, slightly predictable but one that keeps you reading and engaged.

The meaning behind this story is an important one, it's just unfortunate that it didn't hit very hard until the last 100 pages or less. I continued to read because I knew something big was coming, something shocking and interesting, and I was right: the whole time, I assumed Aria had attempted suicide and was trying to forget her past, so it was definitely a surprise to discover she was escaping from a mistake she made that actually led to a former student committing suicide. The first 85% of the story I wasn't bored, necessarily, just waiting expectantly for "more". But, boy, that last percentage really packed a punch. It goes to show how bullying can go wrong, how there are literally life and death consequences to such actions. It also highlights some of the differences in those with autism, which is nice, because I feel like that topic is shied away from by many. I love K. A. Tucker and I hate to say that, while the moral of the story was an important one, 'Be the Girl' wasn't one of my favorites.
