Summary:
In a stunning literary debut, two boys on opposite ends of the world begin an unlikely friendship that will change their lives forever.
Ollie and Moritz are best friends, but they can never meet. Ollie is allergic to electricity. Contact with it causes debilitating seizures. Moritz’s weak heart is kept pumping by an electronic pacemaker. If they ever did meet, Ollie would seize. But Moritz would die without his pacemaker. Both hermits from society, the boys develop a fierce bond through letters that become a lifeline during dark times—as Ollie loses his only friend, Liz, to the normalcy of high school and Moritz deals with a bully set on destroying him.
A story of impossible friendship and hope under strange circumstances, this debut is powerful, dark and humorous in equal measure. These extraordinary voices bring readers into the hearts and minds of two special boys who, like many teens, are just waiting for their moment to shine
Review:
"One
day, I will meet you. I will meet you and neither of us will die for
it. By then you’ll have seen more than enough humidifiers to sicken you.
In one year, I hope to be where you are, Oliver Paulot. I am saving pennies. In the meantime, the handful of friends you’ve helped me gather will be enough to deal with.
Perhaps I’ll surprise you even sooner." - Moritz
"But the kid I’m dying to meet is you. I want to tell you stories in person. And you know, maybe we’re getting closer to that. Keep your chin up. Goggles off.
One day I’ll see you in Kreiszig.." - Oliver
I really can't say anything! Totally Speechless! This books is really greaat! I love the plot twist it, friendship, support and healing wounds each other! that's what a friends for! a place to shoulder to cry on! *Sobbing silently >__<
At first i randomly picked up this books since the blurb is catch my attention. Penpals between a boy who have Electricity Allergic and a boy who have heart pacemaker. How they can understand each other? Oliver cannot stand to anything electricity devices and Heart pacemaker it is. However, Moritz needs his heart pacemaker to survive. What will happen if they meet each other? arghhh! I really curious what will be the ending is.
Can you imagine to live as Oliver?
* Your only the safest place in the world is your wood cabin's house?
* You even cannot touch the empty battery, lamp, and other electricity stuff since it can make you get seizures attack and nosebleeding
* You doesn't know what is the telephone is, radio and party is since your body reacted to something electromagnetism
Can you imagine to live as Moritz?
* You was born eyeless. you doesn't even have eyelids and eyelashes
* You always being bullying target in your school?
* People always laugh at you and shout that you are freak and retarded!
I also shocked there is a red string that connected between Oliver and Moritz. haha i'm not giving a single clue what it is.
Last but not least, I Really love this story! In my opinion, It far away AMAZING STORY better than Will Grayson, Will Grayson by John Green & David Levithan and Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe by Benjamin Alire.. I love love it the story so much! XD
