When Julia finds a slur about her best friend scrawled across the back of the Kingston School for the Deaf, she covers it up with a beautiful (albeit illegal) graffiti mural. Her supposed best friend snitches, the principal expels her, and her two mothers set Julia up with a one-way ticket to a "mainstream" school in the suburbs, where she's treated like an outcast as the only deaf student. The last thing she has left is her art, and not even Banksy himself could convince her to give that up. Out in the 'burbs, Julia paints anywhere she can, eager to claim some turf of her own. But Julia soon learns that she might not be the only vandal in town. Someone is adding to her tags, making them better, showing off--and showing Julia up in the process. She expected her art might get painted over by cops. But she never imagined getting dragged into a full-blown graffiti war.… (mere)

This debut novel features Julia, a teen graffiti artist who revels in the act of subversive art like Banksy. She is deaf, as are her two moms, and so are her school and classmates. When she has to break out of her comfort zone and try and solve the mystery of who is vandalizing her art, she must open herself to the hearing world in new ways. Despite the author being hearing-abled, Gardner acknowledges four sensitivity readers who shared their insights from a deaf perspective. Reviewed with raves from the deaf community, this book features idiomatic expressions and ASL sentence structure as well as an accurate depiction of the struggles of lip-reading, for example, making this a compelling and relevant addition to any library.

I have to give this one four stars, although it's really only a 3-star read . . . because it was SO awesome for me to read fiction about a girl with two moms :) ( )

diverse teen fiction - Deaf teen (who is incidentally East Indian-American w/2 moms navigates new high school and makes a new friend who struggles with an eating disorder); graffiti artists.

I am not a member of the Deaf community but based on other things I've read, this felt well-researched, and the details--from not being able to read lips perfectly when people are talking too quickly or have an accent, to being insulted by ESL teachers felt real.

parental notes: lots of language (f-bombs), an ill-advised vengeful kissing scene, and oh yeah, some illegal graffiti. Julia doesn't always make the right choices but she does love her moms a lot, and in the end learns a lot about true friendship. ( )
