Click on the book cover to read my review and see what grade I gave Read My Lips. A synopisis of the story is below.
Serena just wants to fly under the radar at her new school. But Serena is deaf, and she can read lips really well-even across the busy cafeteria. So when the popular girls discover her talent, there’s no turning back.
From skater chick to cookie-cutter prep, Serena’s identity has done a 180…almost. She still wants to date Miller, the school rebel, and she’s not ready to trade her hoodies for pink tees just yet. But she is rising through the ranks in the school’s most exclusive clique.
With each new secret she uncovers, Serena feels pressure to find out more. Reading lips has always been her greatest talent, but now Serena just feels like a gigantic snoop…

I’ve recommended several of your YA reviews to my tween daughter - you do a really good job with the summaries! I try to connect the book to a “talk”, too … this one looks like it would open up a discussion on cliques/popularity vs. true friends; and not taking advantage of people “differently abled” than we are!
