Welcome to Litsy!

Caleb walks through the woods near his house, he sees what looks like an angel sitting atop a boulder with the sun shining down on her through the trees. Kit, gives him all he‘s ever hoped for—the freedom of being normal without the reality of cystic fibrosis looming over him. Caleb lies and skips summer camp to play with Kit. It isn‘t until he learns that Kit‘s mother is neglecting her that he realizes their fairytale summer must come to an end.

I absolutely adored Beth Vrabel's Caleb and Kit (thanks, @meaningfulmadness, for the loan!). Caleb is a twelve-year-old boy with cystic fibrosis who is dealing with (1) the perfection of his seventeen-year-old brother, (2) the aftermath of his parents' divorce, (3) having to attend a summer camp during the day, and (4) growing apart from his best friend Brad. (continued in comments)

“Maybe this time the medicine would be serum. Maybe I‘d wake up strong as a superhero, as magical as Kit.”

This is the story about the measures that people take to experience love and friendship, regardless of what is in their best interest or not. That is love.

This is a realistic fiction about a story of friendship. Caleb is a quiet and protective twelve year old. This is because he was born was cystic fibrosis. The rules and routines that manage this disorder control too much of Caleb. Then he meets Kit and everything changes.

Love. This is the second Vrabel book that I've had to go back and reread the last chapter because it's so gucci. Review to come on www.randombookmuses.com and Goodreads. :)

Just finished this- loved it!

I have this as an #arc from #netgalley. The premise sounds promising and is part of my quest in finding more #diverse stories that include characters of varying abilities / disabilities.
