Every Word You Never Said was a fast, lovely, and heartwarming read. 

The characters were really the main focus of the book. Skylar is nonverbal, gay, and loves wearing skirts. I absolutely loved Skylar and think he deserves the world. Jacob is gay and his family is very conservative and religious. While these two are the main focus, there are other characters that were absolutely lovely.

However, I did feel like the ending was a little rushed. This wasn’t necessarily a bad thing since it was an easy read, but I wished there had been more depth and connection before the ending. 

I thought this book was very cute and definitely worth the read. Once I saw the cover and description, I knew I had to read this. The writing was great and had realistic dialogue between teenagers.

Please check the TWs before reading!! Don’t just go into this book blind as it deals with many issues like; homophobia, ableism, bullying, and religious trauma.
