Mockingbird by Kathryn Erskine

Would you recommend this book? If so, who would you recommend it to, and why? If not, why not?
Mockingbird by Kathryn Erskine is a book about asperger's syndrome named Caitlin. Her brother died in a shooting attack on his school, and her mother is dead also. Caitlin may be the best artist in the state of Virginia, but she only draws in black and white. Color is too confusing for her. Caitlin's father is distraught over his son's death, so Caitlin sets it in her mind to find 'closure' to make him feel happy again. This book is one of my favorite books.
I would definitely recommend this book. I would recommend it to anyone 10 & up, even grown-ups. You would like this book if you liked Rain Reign.
