Rex himself manages to have bad-boy allure without ever actually being a bad guy, he’s an extremely lovable character. Ellen is a little bland – classic awkward not-like-other-girls protagonist, but her relationship with Rex is cute. The romance starts off a bit rocky, but it quickly makes you fall in love. Things to tie up a little too quickly and nicely at the end considering the severity of the conflict – but the novel despite the heavy issues is light in tone. The book darts from plot thread to plot thread and never slows down. Louder than Words has a lot going on, and for that reason the pacing is a bit rushed.

Lesson learned trust is for suckers and actions speak louder than words. Wrong doesn’t begin to describe what nearly happened that last day of my Junior year. I thought teachers were there to instruct, to guide, to counsel. I never dreamed my mom would choose drugs and alcohol over me. I thought I’d hit rock bottom when my dad died.
