I Have No Secrets Book Review

This Book Focuses on a fourteen year old Jemma Shaw, who has severely Cerebral Palsy, which leaves her unable to speak or do anything, Sarah is Jemma's Career and she has a boyfriend called Dan and one of their next door neighbors son Ryan was murdered and Dan knows Jemma can't speak so she can't reveal the Secret when however Jemma gets a sniff controller when they discovered she can speak through her nose Dan becomes afraid of Jemma because she has proved what he has done to Sarah and Jemma also live with an nine year old Olivia and Seven year old Finn they are all adopted because of their special needs and Jemma also meets her sister Jodi for the first time when Jodi became scared of Jemma but after the sniff controller came Jodi and Jemma manage to warm up to each other to talk about things like normal teenage girls can do.

I loved this book because it captured a true picture of a young girl going through a challenging time of her life with a Serious Cerebral Palsy also this book spoke to me a lot to in some ways because I have a milder Cerebral Palsy but it was a book that made me felt angry for how people treat others in wheelchairs and that everyone makes you feel isolated and alone, sometimes no one understands what it feels like apart from you the pressures Jemma parents had to go through at times in the book felt so resonate to me and I felt myself crying inside with Jemma because if wasn't her condition the world would see her like everyone else and that what every cerebral person might feel mild or severely, we all wanted to be treated the same because we're humans aswell too, I loved the fact everyone in the family had a disability, you could connect to the different needs of Olivia and Finn, they also felt like real children, this book was just so pure and heartwarming that there parts where you feel like crying ugly big tears because there was so much emotion and pain put into this book, I hope Penny Joelson will write one in a milder Cerebral Palsy, this book had me to inspired to write a character one day like Jemma, because Cerebral Palsy or disability is not spoken at all in YA which makes me annoyed and sad sometimes.

Thank you for listening to this review.
