What a wonderful middle grade/young adult novel about going to summer camp and realizing your true self. Lilah has always been self conscious of her hearing loss and refusing to accept that she may need further accommodations but when she gets a job at a summer camp for deaf and blind kids, she discovers more than she ever knew.

This book is such an important read to see how un-accommodating society is to those who are even slightly disabled. Closed captions on movies and tv should be default. Understand those who aren’t understand you may need a different way to communicate. And sign language not being widely know can really get in the way of miscommunication, as shown in this book time and time again. The frustration people feel for what seem like minor inconveniences to us could be major to others.

This was a quick read and definitely the perfect summer read and romance
