Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 If I couldn't communicate via my alphabet grid, my questions would go unanswered and I'd be sad about how little I understood. As it is, I was able to consult my mother about how she identified the rain by the sound alone. #2 I have certain memories that leave a lasting impression when I see rain, and I have to put a lot of effort into distinguishing memory rain from real rain if I want to avoid triggering bad flashbacks. #3 I have noticed people often use the words cool or hip when talking about clothing or fashion. However, this whole concept of cool makes no sense to me whatsoever. I do not understand why people would want to be cool when they can be themselves. #4 I have compiled a few personal going out rituals: change into an outdoors outfit, put on a hat, clean my glasses and put them on too, check my belt, tuck my shirt in and so on. I always think that the daily life of the fashion-conscious, with all its dos and don'ts, must get really exhausting.
