Triumph over tragedy; endearing genius finds family.

"Counting by 7s" could really resonate with you if you're drawn to stories of unique characters overcoming adversity. Willow isn’t your average protagonist; she’s a young genius grappling with the ultimate loss and searching for connection. This journey is beautifully written, full of heartache and hope, managing to bring a refreshing take on finding one’s place in the world. Willow’s tale isn’t just sad—there’s joy, growth, and a celebration of life's oddities that might just make you see the world a little differently.
