Eliopulos has written for teens before [the wonderful Fascinators] but is less successful with the intermediate tween age group. Will, 12-ish, has Chrohn’s Disease – a disease of the bowel. The active soccer player details the year he is diagnosed and how his life, and that of his friends and family, is turned inside out – literally! Whilst the author has Chrohn’s too, there tends to be a fairly large amount of symptoms per page. There are lighter side characters - and some of them LGBTQi+ . Will himself may not be who he thinks he is during the novel, and Griffin, his computer-gaming friend, helps him see there are others around that are different to him. The parents come across as understanding, if overprotective. Some religious content. Somewhat recommended! sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

"Will loves playing center midfield on his middle school soccer team. This year, though, Will hasn't felt like himself: his stomach has been bothering him, and he has no energy at all. When his new doctor diagnoses him with Crohn's disease, Will hopes that means he'll start feeling better soon and he can get back to playing with his team before the season ends. But Will's new medicines come with all kinds of side effects, and his body needs to heal before he can get back out on the field. Forced to sit out afternoon practice, Will finds himself hanging out with a kid at school, Griffin. This could be a real problem, seeing as Griffin just asked Will's best friend to the spring dance. As in, guy friend. What would Will's teammates say if they knew the whole story? Not to mention Will's friends at church. With all these changes happening faster than he can process them, Will knows that he has a lot to figure out who he really is on the inside."--Provided by publisher.
