My Review: I was so excited to read this one but sadly that excitement didn't last long after starting. The story felt jumbled and I just didn't care for the characters.  I have read other titles about autism and romance but this one just didn't work out for me at all.  Sadly the pacing didn't work and the story just felt boring. 

Review

"Its cinematic potential clearly shows. The high-concept narrative is entertaining, well-paced, and highly visual. It's a charming, humorous, and hopeful tale. A quirky, touching love story that offers insights into autism, religion, and personal tragedy." - Kirkus Reviews

"A wonderfully well-written, funny, romantic love story. Unique and inspirational. The Sound of Violet is not your average romance. Rarely do I find myself so captivated by a book that I cannot put it down. Highly recommended. The Sound of Violet is simply remarkable." - Readers' Favorite

"Wolf puts a fresh spin on the genre. Snappy dialogue and humorous, well-staged scenes. A sweet and entertaining romantic comedy, The Sound of Violet touches on autism and the power of faith. It will appeal to any reader who enjoys a blend of quirky characters, humor and drama." - Blue Ink Review

"Heartfelt, out-of-the-ordinary romance. This warm, witty story does not shy away from serious themes like exploitation, redemption, and true love. The Sound of Violet explores heavy issues with a light touch. It's easy to see this being adapted into an enjoyable movie."- Foreword Review
