    About this audiobook

    "A haunting, dreamlike tale of sacrifice, love, and obsession." -- Cassandra Clare, #1 New York Times bestselling author.

    Delaney Meyers-Petrov is tired of being seen as fragile just because she's Deaf. So when she's accepted into a prestigious program at Godbole University that trains students to slip between parallel worlds, she's excited for the chance to prove herself. But her semester gets off to a rocky start as she faces professors who won't accommodate her disability, and a pretentious upperclassman fascinated by Delaney's unusual talents.

    Colton Price died when he was nine years old. Quite impossibly, he woke several weeks later at the feet of a green-eyed little girl. Now, twelve years later, Delaney Meyers-Petrov has stumbled back into his orbit, but Colton's been ordered to keep far away from the new girl... and the voices she hears calling to her from the shadows.

    Delaney wants to keep her distance from Colton -- she seems to be the only person on campus who finds him more arrogant than charming -- yet after a Godbole student turns up dead, she and Colton are forced to form a tenuous alliance, plummeting down a rabbit-hole of deeply buried university secrets. But Delaney and Colton discover the cost of opening the doors between worlds when they find themselves up against something old and nameless, an enemy they need to destroy before it tears them -- and their forbidden partnership -- apart.

      I really loved the concept of the book and loved that Delaney was someone with a disability. I loved how it highlighted the struggles that people who are different face when others don’t understand or show compassion towards those who are different because it’s such a stark reality for so many with disabilities of all kinds. I really enjoyed most of the writing except in the middle it felt like the author’s voice changed and suddenly everything was trying to be over-the-top poetic and a lot of it stopped making sense in favor of pretty words. Thankfully the ending dropped that and more of the beginning voice came back but I really could have done without the weird thesaurus usage in the middle. Overall a good read though.

      The book is good and a little creepy, but I was confused in a lot of parts. I did listen to it, so I don’t know if I should have red it instead?!?

      Absolutely incredible and skin crawling. I don’t usually read thrillers, but this one was with it.

      I would have given it 4 stars if it weren't for the lag in the beginning mostly. The author did a good job at physically embodying her characters on paper for us to see and comprehend without using the same description over and over. Im not a romantic and cringe at overly sappy romance novels but this book is overt and obsessive about the love between the female and male protagonist is written about in an obviously otherworldly fashion but has so much feeling and angst that the progression felt real and not like a fairy tale. One of the many books I have read where I rooted for the couple throughout. And enjoyed the banter friendship and unconditional love that they grow to feel and we grow to learn.

      Other than being repeatedly told that the character is deaf there is literally nothing else that indicates that she is. No reference to lip reading or sign language or other forms of communication. It’s just told to you. Considering it’s specifically stated in the description that it’s something that causes difficultly for her, you’d think that’d be written in. Feels very strange.
