Title: A Mango-Shaped Space
Description: A Mango-Shaped Space is a beautifully written, realistic fiction novel about a girl named Mia who has synesthesia, a neurological disorder, which cause your five senes to be all jumbled up. For example, Mia can see numbers, letters, and sounds as their own colors right before her eyes. Mia has problems regarding her synesthesia at her new school, until she finds some other people just like her. Some syesthetes, (people who have synesthesia) can also taste certain flavors when they hear certain sounds, or hear certain sounds based on the certain textures they feel. A Mango-Shaped Space does a wonderful job of portraying this disorder. Filled with, eye-opening details, sad descriptors, and humorous actions, this book is one-hundered percent one of my favorites.
