Love seeing Deaf protagonists written by HOH authors. Was here for the perspective but not necessarily gripped by the plot. It’s a sweet show of friendship and not terribly challengingz

This seemed to have all of the ingredients to make an enjoyable read, but for whatever reason, I really could not connect with them. I did not have a problem with each individual part, the plot was good, the characters well fleshed out, and the pacing was fine - again, I think it's just a me problem. I would recommend others to check out the novel and decide for themselves.

Nice teen novel with deaf protagonist moving to new school in last year. Includes discussion on ASL / CI and deaf pride issues.
Suitable for YA or younger - innocent (kissing only) romance
