Because of this, people around her tend to let their secrets out. But there is one secret she desperately needs to tell: she knows who the murderer is because they told her. A new technology is being created that will hopefully let Jemma communicate but will the murderer try and stop her? I loved the main character, Jemma, and the author did a wonderful job creating her. The book does have a mystery element to it but it offers so much more than a cheap thrill. *I WAS PROVIDED A PHYSICAL COPY IN RETURN FOR MY HONEST REVIEW. THIS DOESN'T AFFECT MY OPINION* Okay, first of all, I'm really happy to know that this book is releasing on my birthday. SQUEEE! for birthday books! Though this book started out fairly slow in the beginning, it had full reason to. Because of the main character's disability, this book is very character-driven. What that means is that the plot won't move unless she makes a plot-shift herself, which can sometimes be an off-putter to some readers. However, after those first few chapters, the pace quickly picked up. Through Jemma's view, we're introduced to discrimination against those with disabilities, as well as a suspect of murder and kidnapping. We're given hints and clues throughout the text that lead us in one direction, only to then turn in another. I found that, while in a time of desperation and worry, these characters were still able to continue every day. I find that to be an important part of this story, as life doesn't just stop when tragedy strikes, and I think that was really important to this story. I also really loved that we're given a little bit of insight into scientific research being done to help those who can't speak. Be it from one disability to another, I think that was also a really huge part of this novel that spoke volumes of what the potential could be for these individuals. All in all, I did really enjoy this novel. I look forward to reading more from Penny Joelson in the future, and I hope that all of y'all give this book a fighting chance. For that, I rate it 4 stars. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
