As Skylar and Jacob become close, their fears and the pressures from those around them threaten to tear them apart. Jacob, another student at the school, is also gay, but he has a different social life and home life: he is in a rock band, and he is the son of a religious, conservative politician. Two other outsiders-Seth, a bookworm, and Imani, who’s Wiccan-befriend him, though their support is not enough to quell the homophobic attacks by others.
Newly adopted and entering a new high school in North Carolina as a sophomore, Skylar is nonverbal and gay, making him a target for bullies. Disabilities and adoption are themes in Jordon Greene’s LGBTQ+ novel Every Word You Never Said, a sweet romance story that’s informed by social justice concerns.
