 I was so incredibly excited to read this book. It seemed to be the perfect setup! I absolutley adore a book (whether it's contempory, fantasy, historical fiction, or somewhere in between) in which one or both of the main characters are kind of broken (mentally or physically) but they help to piece each other back together and fall in love in the process. It's always so beautiful and makes for a fantastic read, which is why I had such high hopes for this one. The plot sounded very interesting and I was intrigued to learn more about being deaf by reading from the P.O.V. of a character who is. Unfortunately, it was a bit of a let down. The storyline ended up being a little too unrealistic for me, and some parts of the story were a bit rushed, especially the romance! 
 It wasn't a bad book, it had a great premise, it just wasn't executed the best. At times, I really felt like I was just reading a decent wattpad story. 
 Overall, it was enjoyable, just not as great as I'd hoped it to be. I'm glad I finally got to read it though.
