Simon Sort of Says
Erin Bow
Simon O’Keeffe and his family move from Omaha to Grin and Bear It, Nebraska, after he survives a school shooting. The town lies in the National Quiet Zone, where internet, Wi-Fi, phones, radios, and other interfering signals are prohibited so scientists can listen for radio signals from space. Simon hopes the move will free him from media attention. At his new school, he befriends Kevin and Agate; together they plan to send fake alien signals to help scientists facing lost funding. When Simon’s past becomes known, he experiences renewed panic attacks and anxiety.
