Interesting read, I did read this on audiobook and thought they did a great job with narration. The writing is good, the pacing is fine, and it was an all round good read!
I didn't actually read what this was about and WHAM! It actually turned out to be much more action packed then I could have anticipated - especially with the kidnapping. (I did not see that coming!) An adventure for sure that I think J- YA readers could really get hooked on!
This book also provides a lot of talking points about d/Deaf culture and even privilege/discrimination, and our main character has a balance of being both! There is discussion about natives (Wampanoag) and free slaves - then her kidnapped experience and the doc. seeing her deafness being an infliction and being treated less as such.
An excellent book, I especially appreciate the author's notes and experiences being d/Deaf. Extra star for the representation!
