![]() ![]() This has been on my TBR list for quite some time. This book is amazing and I love it so much. ![]() The pages were showing the life of someone who is Deaf, and because of this, I thought, there was so much detail. The illustrations of the novel were beautiful and you really had to stop and take a look at all the details. With half the story told in beautiful black and white illustrations and the other in traditional typed words, this novel is a very quick read - I myself read it over the course of an afternoon. Told in dual perspectives - Ben’s story in words and Rose’s story in pictures, the two weave back and forth in symmetry before finding the missing link. Both set off for journeys in New York, desperate to find what they are missing. Rose, in 1927, dreams of a mysterious actress whose life she’s pasted into a scrapbook. Ben, in 1977, longs for his father he’s never known, especially after his mother dies in a car accident. Ben and Rose both dream of a different and better life. ![]()
