In Our Hands by Larissa C. Moyer
5.0
4.5⭐️One of the strongest indie debuts I’ve read!!
If you are in the mood for an emotional read that will make you feel it all, look no further! Told in a dual POV format with flashback scenes, this story follows Evelyn and Otis, two best friends who ultimately come to terms with how they feel after tragedy hits.
I adored both Otis and Evelyn and their special relationship. They were multi-layered and real characters who learned to lean on each other to get through past traumas and life’s hardships. I love how Moyer emphasized the importance of finding someone to complete you and who you feel safe around no matter what. The deaf representation was also really strong, and I found it easy to step into Otis’s shoes and experience the world as he did.
