A review by jingojingo
Just Listen by Sarah Dessen

4.0

very strong TW rape (that i had NO clue about) but other than that this was an engaging, easy read that really made me think about my own ability and desire to be honest. owen is an interesting love interest, very natural romantic progression, and i like the family dynamics.

i love how sarah dessen has a cinematic universe that references itself lol and the implication that all of these stories about pretty blonde girls are happening simultaneously in the same town. the little truth about forever reference was adorable. overall not my FAV book but there's a deep, introspective theme and it lingers
