Ginny Moon
By Benjamin Ludwig
This novel is told in Ginny's voice. Ginny is a 14-year old teenager with autism. She is a foster care child who was adopted and is living with her "forever" family. Ginny is quirky and strange, due to her autism. For some reason, Ginny wants to be reunited with her birth mother, who was abusive plus addicted to drugs, and she wants to reunite with her "baby doll", which turns out to be a baby sister who was never officially "born", and who her mother keeps a secret.
A strange novel with a somewhat unlikely plot.
Rating: 3/5
Recommendation: The voice of the autistic main character is interesting and provides an insight into the autistic mind. The plot is unlikely and silly.
