It’s heartbreaking to see her hide her true passion away at school and convince herself that only her grades and academic achievements matter. In reality, Frances loves art and is obsessed with a podcast called Radio Silence, that she geeks out over on Tumblr. Speaking of them, they don’t really get Frances and she cannot be herself around them, so these are shallow relationships that make her quite lonely. ➡ Frances is a self-declared ‘study’ machine and pretty much only exists on schoolwork, so much that she is School Frances around her friends. That’s why I also could connect to them throughout the course of the book and care about their story. I was really impressed by how real the main characters Frances (whose POV we get) and Aled are. The book just gets it when it comes to teens 💗 I have noticed that when I read, I Was Born For This as well, as Alice Oseman just knows how to write realistic, authentic teens, probably because she is quite young as well.
“I wonder- if nobody is listening to my voice, am I making any sound at all?” Will they have the courage to show everyone who they really are? Or will they be met with radio silence? In a world determined to shut them up, knock them down, and set them on a cookie cutter life path, Frances and Aled struggle to find their voices over the course of one life-changing year. You probably think that they are going to fall in love or something.
