Read My Lips

It's not terrible but it did not age well. It's just reaks of the 2000's and alot of the terminology made me cringe. I would've liked if the book did a bit better at explaining why Serena disliked ASL and Deaf culture so much but oh well. I wouldn't really reccomended it now because it's cringey and dated. Overall though, not the worst thing ever.

For Serena Nelson, fitting in has never been easy, but it was possible. A punk skater at heart, she had her own niche of like-minded friends who didn't mind that she was deaf. Serena's talents for lip reading are excellent, and allow her to live a pretty normal life. When she moves to a small town, the preps in her new school see her talent as something to profit off of, and use Serena to get the juiciest gossip, enticing her with a membership into a secret sorority and the promise of fitting in. But will her so-called friends go too far? READ MY LIPS is an attention-grabbing page-turner. Serena is a smart and edgy narrator, who is quite normal despite her condition, and doesn't seek attention because of it. Her desire to fit in is something that we can all empathize with, and the lengths that she goes to do so are relatable. But it's how she fights back and overcomes those that belittle her that makes READ MY LIPS such a compelling and quick read. The story is a delightful mix of complex characters, biting wit, and the angst that comes with making new friends.

The best book... I was addicted to it... Read it twice❤❤❤ i just couldn't get over it
