Publisher's Summary
Normal is just a setting on the dryer.
High school graduate Jeremey Samson is looking forward to burying his head under the covers and sleeping until it's time to leave for college. Then a tornado named Emmet Washington enters his life. The young man with a double major in math and computer science is handsome, forward, wicked smart, interested in dating Jeremey - and he has autism.
But Jeremey doesn't judge him for that. He's too busy judging himself, as are his parents, who don't believe in things like clinical depression. When Jeremey's untreated illness reaches a critical breaking point, Emmet is the white knight who rescues him and brings him along as a roommate to The Roosevelt, a quirky new assisted living facility.
As Jeremey and Emmet find their feet at The Roosevelt, they begin to believe they can be loved for the men they are beyond their disabilities. But before they can trust enough to fall head over heels, they must trust their own convictions that friendship is a healing force and love can overcome any obstacle.

Loved this book. My son is autistic and Emmett's character is both written and narrated very well.

This audio-book took me to a place where I cried and laughed I felt overwhelmed with emotion and with that word I can hear Jeremey .
Emmet and Jeremey fell into my heart and are still there ... and we need to listen more....as everyone has a voice..
The wonderful words from Heidi and the magical astounding narration from Iggy Toma was more than brilliant..
