I’m a huge bachelor/bachelorette fan and was very intrigued by Abigail when she was on the show. I was so eager to hear her story and learn more about her, so when I saw this book I was very excited. However, I felt like this work could have used more editing and help from a publisher- I wanted more. For being called the deaf girl, it didn’t have as much depth to the story as I hope but instead felt very repetitive and surface level. This is nothing against her as a writer, I just wanted more. I feel like I learned more from hearing about her sister than I did her own story. It’s not bad but it just expected and wanted more. I’m thankful for the opportunity to read an early copy!

Cute book and easy read. I loved learning about Abigail growing up and finding herself before learning about all the bachelor details. I just wish there was more to read!

I received a free ebook from Netgalley in exchange for fair and an unbiased review. I have watched the Bachelor since the beginning. I liked the author on the Bachelor. I really like biographies. I have had an interest in deaf culture.

I had low expectations for the book. It really grabbed my attention. I finished the book in 2 days. I was interested in what the author had to say.

It is a very easy to read book. It is a positive and uplifting book. Everyone has a story. Everyone deals with stuff. What the author deals with is put in a realistic life aspect. The book is very human and heartwarming.

I feel like this book is for almost everyone. It deals with living an authentic life. It deals with being vulnerable. I think these to aspects are difficult for most of us.

I would really like to see the author in person. When's the book tour? Thank you to the author and Netgalley for such an inspiring and beautiful book.

Omg, I already loved Abigail from her time on the Bachelor and through her instagram but this book made me love her even more! I also love that this is a true memoir of her life, even before her life even began with her sister's story, But don't worry, the last half of the book includes her bachelor and bachelor in paradise story too. I loved it all. While my disability is much more ignorable, I totally related to just wanting to be normal and never asking for accommodations lest you bring attention to your differentness. Loved her ability to be vulnerable with us and her journey to getting to that place.

And of course I ate up all the bachelor stuff. I already considered her and Noah to be my fave bachelor nation couple the behind the scenes details we didn't get to see just make me love them more.

Highly recommend!

This memoir is about Abigail, the first deaf person to appear on 'The Bachelor'. She shares her story of being deaf and coping with it. Abigail has cochlear implants. I found this memoir to be an excellent read. Thanks to the publishers and NetGalley for giving me an opportunity to read this memoir and do a review.
