I quite enjoyed Radio Silence. I found a lot of parallels between the main characters and myself which made me really engage with the text. The long chapters made me want to cry and it did take me out of the story every once in a while, but the story was good enough to keep picking back up. I am always fascinated by books that give critiques of social media and the roll it plays in our mental health, and this book did a wonderful job with that. It is certainly my favorite piece by Alice Oseman. I would recommend this book to anyone who read An Absolutely Remarkable Thing by Hank Green or Sadie by Courtney Summers, and wanted an okay version, but along the same lines, as those books.
