I am reviewing a copy of Hear Me through Lerner Publishing Group, Carolrhoda Books and Netgalley:
A year after being diagnosed with hearing loss, Rayne’s hearing is rapidly deteriorating, she struggles even with her hearing aids, she has trouble maintaining friendships and keeping up in school surfing is now a wipeout, and she can't understand her favorite singer's lyrics. But worst of all, Rayne's parents are pushing for her to get cochlear implants, a surgery Rayne's not convinced is worth the risks and challenges.
Rayne does her best to convince even to beg her parents to get another option, but they won’t budge. With surgery looming Rayne sets off on a bus journey in search of alternatives—and discovers that even though her ears may be broken, she is not.
A powerful and compelling book.
I give Hear Me five out of five stars!
Happy Reading!
