When reading an Alice Oseman story I feel like I’m wrapped in a snuggly blanket. The characters are lovely, either helping other characters or needing help. With Radio Silence Francis is a driven student desperate to get into Cambridge University. She lives with her single mom, who’s loving and supportive. Aled Last is an introvert, living with his domineering single mom. On a chance encounter at a club the two begin a friendship. Francis and Aled share so many interests, but they also share one really big secret. The pair and even the side characters come off the page, good and bad.
