Tilly in Technicolor by Mazey Eddings is her newest novel about two neurodivergent teens who form a connection over the course of a summer.   After already loving all her previous books I was super curious about this story, and it blew me away. This book just spoke to my soul and it’s so special.   Tilly just finished high school and she is not looking forward to fulfilling her parents’ expectations of going to college and instead she wants to find her own way. During the summer she goes to London to stay with her sister Mona, and she helps her sister with her new nail polish business. They travel all over Europe to capture moments and that creates a fantastic atmosphere. Tilly also has ADHD and that provided a different perspective, and I liked seeing this representation.   Oliver is autistic and he sees the world in colors. That gives you such a unique perspective and I liked learning about how he perceives his surroundings. And as someone who has a Pinterest board full of inspiring Pantone shades, I could relate a little bit to that. Oliver is just such a sweet and wholesome guy, and I absolutely loved him.   Their meet cute in an airplane is just iconic and they never expected to see each other again and that was the best start. During plenty of close proximity situations they get closer and that was just precious. The romance just feels real and honest, and I loved seeing Tilly and Oliver as a couple.   Overall, Tilly in Technicolor is a phenomenal read and I more than highly recommend this story and I’ve found a new favorite in it. 5 stars.   (ARC kindly provided in exchange for a review.)
