The beginning is kinda slow but other than that the storyline keeps you locked it. Archers childhood is rough but he is sweet, caring,vulnerable man that with have you think 'husband material'. <Be prepared to hate Travis in this book >. I would recommend this book

2.5

I was so incredibly excited to read this book, because of the never ending hype that it’s been getting online for the last several years. Unfortunately, I was disappointed with my read of Archer’s Voice. As the book went on, I started to enjoy it less and less, because the dialogue became cringier and the characters became more naïve/ridiculous in their inner monologues and decision making. I think the general plot idea was a super interesting one that could have been explored in a compelling way, but extremely predictable plot twists and many “convenient” things that were used to advance the plot just came off as cheesy. I know that I’m very much opposite to what most people who have read this book felt, but I unfortunately didn’t enjoy this book nearly as much as I was hoping to.

sundayseesstars's review against another edition

The main character treats the love interest like a small child, at least in her internal monologue. He's a grown man, he's just mute. Having a disability doesn't mean he's helpless. She has sex with him and still calls him things like "awkward boy" in her mind. She also very clearly wants him to change, for example in the way he looks.
But Archer is not the best character either. He has some mysoginistic moments in the book.
I finally gave up when

Archer cheated on the main girl in a strip club. I cannot believe that a grown man, however removed from society he has been, does not understand the concept of cheating and that clearly his girlfriend will not be happy with him if that is something he does. He was too gullible for a twenty-something year old man. Also I just hate cheating and therefore had no more energy to keep going.

I started reading this book because I wanted something sweet and easily digestible. I wasn't expecting miracles, and yet this book still managed to disappoint me.

3.75

I’m going 3.75 stars. This book was super cute and I’m obsessed with Archer! I want to protect him at all costs because he’s just so pure. The story was good and I enjoyed most of the characters. It was great to see asl representation in a book. I liked the growth for both Archer and Bree. My main turn off has to do with

the implied sexual adult against Archer and how Bree’s reaction wasn’t recognizing that it was 100% rape. I know nothing actually happened to Archer at the strip club, but the reader, and Bree, didn’t know that initially so I was upset seeing Bree say that Archer made the “choice” to go in the back room. <\spoiler> Other than that though this book had me smitten
