April Hale suffers from Aspergers Syndrome so she has an inability to detect any sort of emotion and it is difficult for her to communicate with other people. So when Ryder Black starts to talk to her , she starts to imitate Yoda. What this means is that Ryder makes it difficult for her to speak. She is unaware of the growing feelings he has for her and he is unaware of the fact that she suffers from Aspergers. As they both get to know each other more and more their feelings increase for each other but April begins to push him away because she says that he causes,"Flesh-eating monsters" in her stomach. In reality she is just afraid that he makes her feel this way. However, Ryder has never had to deal with a girl saying no. Even though he flirts with her, even though he practically lives in her room , he still thinks that April doesn't like him. When Ryder becomes aware of the syndrome that April has he suddenly understands and when April explains that he makes her feel as if there "is a hippo sitting on her throat " every time they talk or how the flesh-eating monsters begin their job every time his hand makes contact with her hand.
Due to the events that have occurred in the book i can infer that April is a very caring person because in the beginning of the book she has an admirer but again she is completely unaware of Andrew's feelings towards her so when Andrew manages to ask her if she likes him and she responds with , "Of course i like you you're my buddy as long you are my brother's buddy even though we don't sit together in lunch."She is completely unaware that she just friend-zoned him so when everybody starts to say things like ,"You killed him!" "The poor guy" "He must be dying" or "Harsh, man".
She falls into hysterics she cries because she doesn't know what she did wrong and to make it up she asks him to sit with her in lunch and he denies her because Quinn , April's brother explained April's condition to him.
