Thank you Netgalley for the eARC! There’s not a lot of deaf rep in books and manga, so I wanted to check this out. It was a cute story, but the friendship between Kanon and Saki seemed a bit forced? It was heartwarming that Saki wanted to learn as much about deaf culture as possible so she could befriend Kanon, but the characters just fell a little flat for me. I really appreciate the research the author put into the story though. Many of the situations in the book were relatable as I’ve experienced some of them with my boyfriend. I’m curious to see what happens next in the story, but since I felt a bit “meh” after reading this, I don’t think I’ll be picking up the next volume soon.
