Say What's in Your Heart

There was nothing they couldn't say to each other. Except for the most important thing. Sometimes Love Is What You Can't Say... Amy, who was born with cerebral palsy, cannot walk without a walking aid, cannot speak without a speech aid, and cannot even control her facial expressions. Matthew, who suffers from obsessive-compulsive disorder, is consumed by obsessive thoughts, delusional rituals and various fears. They both need someone to put them in touch with the outside world, and they actually have much more in common than they think. When Amy decides to hire student helpers to meet her needs in her last year of high school, the paths of the two young people intersect. As they spend time together, their newly blossoming friendship will become something they have never imagined... "An unforgettable love story." -Teen Vogue- “A wonderful novel about young people who manage to get together despite seemingly insurmountable difficulties.” -Examiner.com- “A work that invites us to put aside fears, limits and appearance and be open-minded.” -Hypable.com- “Exciting and heartbreaking. "An impressive novel with a smart, proud and talented hero who is trying to take the reins of his life into his own hands." -ALA Booklist- “The protagonists of the book will first tear your heart apart, and then use their minds to enthusiastically confront the difficulties and bring the pieces together. It is a book that you should read and digest and then pass it around so that it reaches everyone.” -Ron Koertge, author of Stoner and Spaz.- “McGovern has avoided excessive emotionality by treating Amy and Matthew as individuals rather than as patients. "Characters trying to cope with big problems will surprise, amuse, worry and give hope to the reader." -Publishers Weekly- “A work that sheds light on how the experiences of young people struggling with different disabilities can be normalized among their peers. "A story that captivates the reader and from which a lesson can be learned." -Kirkus Reviews- “It will help you get rid of your daily worries by allowing you to face the difficulties experienced by the characters.” -Horn Book- “A work that every parent should read to understand children with special needs and to feel what they are going through.” -Family Circle- “A book that is instructive not only to young people but also to adults.” -Metro US-
