Give Me A Sign

Give Me A Sign
A light green background with greenery and pink flowers. A teen girl and teen boy sit on a wooden log signing to each other using ASL. From the top down, the script reads “Anna Sortino” then the title “Give Me A Sign” followed by the tagline “All they need are the right words.”

Sometimes social media isn't entirely trash. Across my timeline I saw Anna Sortino Tweet about her debut YA novel Give Me A Sign, available now from G.P. Putnam’s Sons Books for Young Readers. I'm happy to offer 3 hardcovers for y'all! Details below.

About the book

Lilah is stuck in the middle. At least, that’s what having a hearing loss seems like sometimes—when you don’t feel “deaf enough” to identify as Deaf or hearing enough to meet the world’s expectations. But this summer, Lilah is ready for a change.

When Lilah becomes a counselor at a summer camp for the deaf and blind, her plan is to brush up on her ASL. Once there, she also finds a community. There are cute British lifeguards who break hearts but not rules, a YouTuber who’s just a bit desperate for clout, the campers Lilah’s responsible for (and overwhelmed by)—and then there’s Isaac, the dreamy Deaf counselor who volunteers to help Lilah with her signing.

Romance was never on the agenda, and Lilah’s not positive Isaac likes her that way. But all signs seem to point to love. Unless she’s reading them wrong? One thing’s for sure: Lilah wanted change, and things here . . . they’re certainly different than what she’s used to.
