Ali Collins was a child prodigy destined to become one of the greatest musicians of the twenty-first century—until she was diagnosed with a life-changing brain tumor. Now, at seventeen, Ali lives in a soundless world where she gets by with American Sign Language and lip-reading. She’s a constant disappointment to her father, a retired cop fighting his own demons, and the bruises are getting harder to hide.
When Ali accidentally wins a backstage tour with the chart-topping band Tone Deaf, she’s swept back into the world of music. Jace Beckett, the nineteen-year-old lead singer of the band, has a reputation. He’s a jerk and a player, and Ali wants nothing to do with him. But there’s more to Jace than the tabloids let on. When Jace notices Ali’s bruises and offers to help her escape to New York, Ali can’t turn down the chance at freedom and a fresh start. Soon she’s traveling cross-country, hidden away in Jace’s RV as the band finishes their nationwide tour. With the help of Jace, Ali sets out to reboot her life and rediscover the music she once loved.

Tone Deaf, adalah novel yang saya pilih murni dikarenakan sampulnya yang cantik. Nah, buat kalian yang tertarik juga untuk membacanya….. mungkin harus saya ingatkan lebih dulu ya, kalau di balik sampulnya yang bagus, novel ini memiliki cukup banyak triggers yang lebih baik dihindari oleh pembaca yang sensitif terhadap beberapa isu, antara lain: mental illness (PTSD), child abuse, LGBT (dalam novel ini masuk pada kategori gay), death, addiction, dan depression.
