I really enjoyed the first 70% and then it kinda felt stuck and droned on and there was this twist that felt rushed and then the end. Overall a cute book.

I realize I don’t like romance books for the same reason most people like them, they’re an escape from reality. I enjoyed the writing but I wanted more smut and detail!

I just struggled to get into it with the 3 different women and what was going on. I may come back to this at a later time

I really loved how this book centered deaf people, and queer people in a very average setting of high school. I also really appreciated the inclusion of different signs and articles related to the story periodically that tied things to real life. 

My only complaint is the ending was a little too perfectly tied up and then ended. 
informative lighthearted medium-paced

I like yung Pueblo, but sometimes I find his stuff stating the obvious for me. This book is also very focused on romantic relationships. While it’s nothing earth shattering, I still highlighted a bunch of passages to serve as good reminders.
