A review by dhrish
Untouchable by Talia Hibbert
3.0
This was a 3.75 read.
C/W: Parental abandonment, depression, talk about mental illness, talk about chronic and terminal illness, racism
I think why I enjoy reading Hibbert's books is simply because people are always talking. Whether it is to the reader or other characters. Talia doesn't shy from topics like mental health, grief and trauma. Also, she may have singlehandedly made me realise how important healthy communication. Also, Hibbert's bisexual characters read flawlessly and I love that.
I enjoyed Hannah and Evan were quite pleasant to read. While there isn't a ton going on with the plot, the story does seem to deal with every major conflict well. I can't speak on the Black representation however, a nice detail that I enjoyed was points where Hibbert touched on Africa as a diverse diaspora rather than a monolith. This isn't something I often seen dealt with in romances.
I love that I can come back to Hibbert's writing, get what I'm looking for and I'm definitely looking forward to reading and rereading more of her work.
