*4.5 stars* 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, religious trauma, and sexism.

I love the way Jordon wrote the whole story about this book. This is cute, sweet yet funny. And most of all, we have pansexual rep in this book which I love! Thank you. I read the beginning of this pretty designed book. I love all of the aspects. This book is somehow heartwarming with a simple high school story thing. I love how the issues captured as the story goes. ⚠️SPOILERS AHEAD⚠️ I hate it when Jacob's dad Bruce are so self-centered, indoctrinated, toxic and act like a dictator over the A.L. Brown and the way his son expressed himself. Like, he's still his son even he's painting his nails or wearing a dress or a skirt. And it's okay though for me personally. I just didn't like the way Bruce saw the way he forbid Jacob to be himself as 'love'. That's not love. Love for me is the way someone who can accept each other... whether for their strenghts and flaws without condition. Glad that in the end Pastor Dane is standing up for Skylar (and all of the boys who felt opressed because they're unique). And Skylar Gray. He is perfect for Jacob Walters. He makes Jacob more vulnerable about himself and certain that Skylar is the one for him. And also, I love that finally Seth and Imani kissed at the end. Thank you for the beautiful story, Jordon Greene ^^
