Reviews with content warning for Drug use - Archer's Voice

This has been an adventure. A wonderful book that I didn’t want to put down.

250+ highlighted scenes/quotes that I've wanted to go back to. There's so many quotes that spoke to me and I cherished them all. Archer and Bree's love story is something that is not supposed to happen but it worked. Two broken people who healed through each other. It taught me that I should not give up on someone who's broken. They can be healed by using the right ways. I would have thought that this would have been too toxic. Someone trying to fix the other. But it's definitely not.

Plus points to all those spicy scenes. You don't have to be experienced to be great in bed. You just need the right partner to teach you what you both will enjoy.

Someday, when a paperback copy is available in the Philippines, I know for sure that I have to grab a copy and reread them. I want to see how pretty it looks when I have it tabbed and annotated.

Ich mochte das Buch richtig gernee.
Das Kleinstadtfeeling und die allgemeine Atmosphäre des Buchs, die Interaktion zwischen den Charakteren und vor allem den Hauptfiguren.
Der Schreibstil ist schon sehr guuut, auch wenn es mich nicht so mega mega gepackt hat (kann aber auch dran liegen, dass es ein englisches buch ist und ich deshalb mehr das Gefühl hatte, langsamer zu lesen).
Pünktchen abziehen würde ich dafür, dass
...Archers Perspektive einfach zu kurz kam...weil entweder man baut das Konzept so auf oder man lässt es, i guess...aber so 4-5 von 30 Kapiteln waren zu wenig, voe allem weil mich Archers Gedanken mehr interessiert haben als Brees
....die Vergangenheitsstory war zwar präsent, aber hätte für mich persönlich auch mehr sein können, grade flashbacks von archers kindheit
...manchmal sind sachen zu random passiert in meinen Augen bzw manchmal ist so 30 Seiten wenig gewesen und dann aind wieder 5 sachen hintereinander passiert

Fazit: wird nicht meine Lieblingsgedchichtee, weils einfach zu viele gute Bücher gibt, aber es ist ein wunderschönes Buuuch mit einer tollen Geschichte, ich musste auch bisschen weinen und ganz oft lächeln.
Ist approuved!

I quite enjoyed the easy going writing style but I must say, that the story wasn’t as much to my liking. The intimate scenes were put quite randomly and at one point they didn’t add anything to the plot anymore. The plot itself was quite interesting but too dramatic for my taste.
Overall an okay book, which I sadly wouldn’t recommend a friend unless they are into niche and sad love stories.

You know what, maybe love is in the air. Because when I tell you that I inhaled this book, I mean I was on another plane of being. MY EMOTIONS!!!! I knew this was a love story, but God did I underestimate how much love would be packed into this story and how much it would affect me. Is it possible to feel loved by a book??

“Archer’s Voice” is a powerful, beautiful love story about trust, acceptance, and complex communication. I really liked how Mia Sheridan handled Archer’s ability to communicate without his voice. It struck a very strong note in me, as I work with many nonverbal individuals and know firsthand how much you don’t know until you learn to communicate using their language.

Because communication is not exclusively vocal. We all know body language makes up a good part of it, but words can also be shown in many different ways. Voice isn’t reserved just for sound that comes out of your mouth, that is spoken. Sometimes voice is sign language (featured in this book) or through a communication device or through writing on paper, reading lips, etc. Whichever it may be, that is your voice. And our sweet, incredibly misunderstood Archer’s voice shouldn’t have been so different from everyone in Pelion, Maine. If only they’d taken the time to listen with more than their ears and preconceived prejudices.

Until Bree shows up, and everything changes for Archer. I fell headfirst into Archer and Bree’s tender, tentative love—how much they trusted each other and believed in one another, despite each of their own past trauma and current obstacles. It was first love and it never read so real to me. When love is right, it’s bigger than anything. (Note: LOTS AND LOTS OF SPICE in case you were wondering!)

I already wish I could read this again for the first time. LOVE is, in fact, the reason.
