Autofocus by Lauren Gibaldi

5.0

I really and truly loved this book. It's about a girl trying to find pieces and clues about her mother that is gone for a Photography project. But, after a while, it becomes more than that, it become a full journey. In the end, she realizes that she's not who made her. She is who she truly is, because of herself. She soon realizes that she's different from both sides of the spectrum, but it's totally ok and fine. This book is amazing! It will get you in the feels. It's well crafted and I could totally relate to Maude. We all put things especially people in auto-focus and the minute the picture we painted of them changes, we feel a certain way about it. The best way to avoid this, is to accept change. Yes, it's hard, but completely pushing it away, avoiding it, is detrimental. We not only have to accept people for who they truly are, but also ourselves. And this book taught me that. A definite good read! <3 <3 <3
