I like books that focus on this type of diversity.<br /><br />-LaurenShooting Stars Maghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16074581473656321052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11403564.post-41361847740549084912016-02-24T01:21:27.516-05:002016-02-24T01:21:27.516-05:00I love the fact that the main character is deaf!

Some issues aside, I think I would really dig this one. Especially the aspects about a deaf protagonist that you liked - sounds very interesting!Ayleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07639250102446794830noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11403564.post-41516400380249409052016-02-23T20:23:25.663-05:002016-02-23T20:23:25.663-05:00I have always been super curious about this one.

I think I would like this one- it feels like my kind of book, maybe I should move it up on my TBR- make it a priority. <br /><br />Thanks for the review! ~Sara @ Just Another Storyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07870692977272702662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11403564.post-76111454143475746222016-02-23T11:42:13.493-05:002016-02-23T11:42:13.493-05:00Like you, the concept behind this one really inter...Like you, the concept behind this one really interests me but I also find the believably a small problem.

I could barely recall the fightings and petty antics though. :)Joy https://www.blogger.com/profile/08176549392514186645noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11403564.post-3862638349593211902016-02-22T14:32:40.383-05:002016-02-22T14:32:40.383-05:00Great review, Z!

I know you have to suspend disbelief about the band sky rocketing to fame, but despite that I'm curious about the book.
