This book had the tears flowing for sure! What a phenomenal story with a great overall message. Wonder is written so beautifully and so simple that anyone can read this and be moved. I loved reading from multiple characters perspectives. It really told Auggie's story from every angle and helped me understand how life is perceived through so many different types of people. Auggie is just an incredible person I feel as though I know him in real life. This book has without a doubt changed my life, ...more

I loved how the book went from person to person views. Aggie was always himself he never changed and by the end people knew Aggie was a good friend to have. It's truly what is inside that matters!❤ ...more

With the way this book started I was so sure I'd love it. But it looks like more than two POVs just don't work for me anymore, because the moment I got to the first POV change, the magic disappeared, and I couldn't wait to be done with it. When I got to Justin's POV, I was downright annoyed. I still dont't understand why? Why, R.J.?

It's not you, Auggie, I like you a lot - if you've narrated the whole story, it might've ended being a favorite. But as it is, your book just didn't work for me.

Even in the current dark times of society vomiting hatred and evil (but hasn't it always), in all kind of places and at all kind of ages, "Wonder" is such a bright hopeful light that has the strength and power to remind us to focus on kindness, to not let it have limits, and to focus on kind. Such a sweet sweet read. ...more
