This is a follow-up story (not a sequel) to Wonder, a touching book by RJ Palacio. Wonder was about a boy (Augie) who was born with severe cranio-facial problems that required multiple surgeries. It takes place during his first year in a real school. The book was really quite beautiful and it included perspectives of many characters. Many people wanted to hear the perspective of Julian, who was the antagonist of the story. I found this to be a lovely story as well. It covers Julian's POV during the school year, and his summer with his fashionable Grandmother in France, who tells him a story about her childhood during the war. If you enjoyed Wonder, you would like this book as well. It's a little more realistic, but still touching. 3.5 stars

I really liked "Wonder" when I read it a few years ago. I have all the follow-ups, but have yet to read any of them. Also hard to decide which to read first! Have you read the others?
