The Secret of Clouds by Alyson Richman

4.0

This was one of those books where so much was happening and all of it was unrelated--except that it was all happening in the life of one young teacher whose modest life is forever altered by one student who has a broken heart. The book felt very realistic in that way, dramatized, of course, but overall very real, and it really made me think about each human life being a small cog in the giant machine of existence. I realize that sounds philosophical, but that is the tone of this beautiful story: the philosophy and drama of of everyday living.
Thanks to NetGalley for providing me with this ARC in exchange for my truthful review.
With that in mind, I will say that I think the title change was a good idea; The Secret of Clouds feels much less pigeon-holing to the story than The Family Cloud.
