Ahh man this one got me right in the feelings y’all. You know how readers always talk about whether a good plot or good characters make a book great? Reading this one reminded me that an amazing character can be really special for me. ⁣
⁣
From the synopsis: Arlo Dilly is young, handsome and eager to meet the right girl. He also happens to be DeafBlind, a Jehovah’s Witness, and under the strict guardianship of his controlling uncle. His chances of finding someone to love seem slim to none.⁣
⁣
And yet, it happened once before: many years ago, at a boarding school for the Deaf, Arlo met the love of his life—a mysterious girl with onyx eyes and beautifully expressive hands which told him the most amazing stories. But tragedy struck, and their love was lost forever.⁣
⁣
Or so Arlo thought.⁣
⁣
Arlo completely won me over almost immediately, he made me laugh, he made me cry and he also warmed my heart. This was such a unique and quirky read about found family, finding your place in the world and finding your true home. The audio version was so good, the author narrated himself which is risky but it paid off here for sure! Definitely recommend this one if you want something different ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⁣
