okay but the chapter Childish Kisses where Daniel is just pouring his heart out?? Physically hurt me, completely wasn't ready, got called out and got my heart ripped OUT. I love this book so much it's so wholesome and broke me apart. I would completely recommend this book for everybody around the ages of 16-20 just by the college/future aspect alone. The friendships were so wholesome that it made me feel lonely lmao
Yes I never really see people talking about Daniel!! At the beginning I didn’t really care about him but he had such great character development, which I wish was developed even further because Childish Kisses is pretty much the only time we learn that much about him. I really grew to love him but I would have loved him even more if he got more pages and development
@@kazuo9005 exactly!! I thought we wouldn't see much of Daniel and he would remain as "that character the protagonist doesn't like but is a minor character" but I was happily surprised and I'm very happy she gave him character development. I wish we had more of him too tbh and I wish we knew more about him, how he felt about his ethnicity (like how Frances and him were drunk talking about it), his relationship with Aled, and his future goals in general.
MikaylaMockingjay same, it sounds a bit contradictory to say he had great character development but at the same time want a lot more of it, but that’s exactly what I feel so lol
@@kazuo9005 no I get it lmao I feel the same way. Like I completely understand that the author didn't want to flood the book with too much romance, especially because it's separate from Frances, but I would read all about them and especially about Daniel because they are so interesting and the way they work together.
omg I started crying at Childish Kisses and hours after finishing the book i’ve gone back and rereading that chapter so many times because I found it so raw and so powerful. Daniel IS my favorite character and I loved his development, it felt so subtle and earned that by the time I reached that chapter as he broke down in Oxford I believed every word I was reading. The moment felt so real and has left me absolutely devastated, it’s comforting to know i’m not alone
I feel like Alice Oseman is a master at representation and creating relatable characters and storylines. I was introduced to her by reading Heartstopper and never had I experienced anything so relatable and felt like I was finally being represented right and realistically
One thing that I loved about this book that it was set in England. It's been so long since I've actually read any UKYA and it's so refreshing that I actually get the references the author is talking about (unlike some stuff in American books). Just seeing the characters talk about going to Spoons and doing their A-Levels and UCAS forms like! biiiitch!!
Same I really loved that too?? Like it’s such a weird thing to enjoy about a book but whenever a book mentions GCSEs/A-Levels/UK school things frequently I automatically like it more because it’s something I have knowledge of and so I can relate to it more
An important part of the book (in my opinion), that you didn't give much emphasis is that a lot of a book is them trying to figure out what they wanna be and university they want to go to and their masters and stuff, but it's also like a discussion as Frances doesn't really feel like wanting to go to university anymore and she's trying to figure out what he wants, since Oxford was her goal from day one.
omg thats by alice oseman!! I absolutely love her comic heartstopper!! Radio silence is her 2nd book and her 3rd book just came out. Lmao sorry i like stan her
I get so excited when you release a new video because usually, I can't find something to listen to in the background cuz its either boring or not my style. But you are perfect to listen to
Books that ends in which a person don’t end up with someone but learns how to just love their self and learns they don’t need another person are the best books.
I literally just finished this book approximately 30 minutes ago, and honestly, this book is by far, the most relatable book I've read. I could relate to Frances about her getting excellent grades, being studious, not having friends where she could truly be herself and having a secret hobby; and the decision she makes by the end of the book--perfectly encapsulates the very situation I'm going through at the moment, and feels so natural and realistic, I tear up just thinking about it. Frances and Aled's relationship is so wholesome and heartwarming, my heart melts everytime. Now, I'm off to read the webcomic made by the author herself (It's called Heartstopper, and I never realized you could read it for free when I had plans to buy the physical copy online, but I'll still buy it in the near future :D) I and everyone else agree that Carol needs to taught a lesson, rEAL BAD.
You guys are saying it sounds like Radio Rebel but does anyone remember Radio Free Roscoe a similar Canadian show that went on way before Radio Rebel? It had much better acting too
Frances is based on Alice's own uni experiences, she did English lit at a top English uni but then regretted it because she hated it but now she loves art and does it a lot with her webcomic and stuff so Frances is like what she could have done instead or maybe should have done
Loved the review! Just wanted to make a quick note that Aled actually says he's asexual and its hinted hes demisexual which is why he was only attracted to Daniel, who just happens to be a male. 💕❤
I watched this when it came out but also 8 months later I’m living Frances’ (/Francis’?) academic arc: after getting rejected from oxford this year & taking a year out to reapply I’m starting to question whether I even wanted to pursue the subject I originally applied for and now I’m veering toward art Apologies that this was unrelated to the actual review lmao
Alice Oseman is literally the best! She has two other books and has a webcomic called "Heartstopper". Very active on Tumblr. Everyone should check her out, BLEASE!!
Hi Casey, somewhat new to your channel and really enjoying so far. I just wanted to recommend the book, My Best Friend's Exorcism. Idk how into horror you are, but I kind of fell in love with this book and thought you might enjoy it too. 😊 It's basically Mean Girls meets Pretty in Pink meets The Exorcist.
everyone check out alice's youtube channel!! there's a really fantastic radio silence q & a and she vlogs most of her process for her third book and she's really spectacular
I was out all night so i fell off my early streak :( But i have read this book before, and i also loved it. Awesome that the recent books on your channel have been good!
i personally don’t like reading synopsis or any plots or watch trailers for movies. i just want to read a good book without knowing anything about it and it’s kinda hard but this one was exactly that. i went in knowing absolutely nothing about it other than that it was involved with some elements of mental health(from kat) and i absolutely loved it i feel like reading this book without knowing anything feels great. i dont think i would have felt as much as positive feelings if i had read the synopsis.
I finished the book yesterday and it was really good! I read it in like five days (which is quickly for me), after it took nearly a week to arrive to the library. When I got to the part where Aled says he's demisexual I almost screamed because I've never read a book with ace rep before! Radio Silence has just amazing representation and such lovely characters! (Also, just pointing this out but you said Adel instead of Aled at the end lol)
this review is kinda spoiler-y yall so if u havent read the book yet pls go in blind!!! it's gonna make ur reading experience SO much better ,, i read it without knowing anything about it (i just read the synopsis once) and it's the best book ive ever read
This review really helped me decide wether to get this book or not...so thank you! I’ve been getting so many recommendations and I hope it is as good as everyone says. (I recently saw your channel and you are now one of my favorite booktuber person..I think that is the correct term?) 🤔😘
So I actually really enjoyed the book except I wish I liked it more?? Idk why I don't absolutely adore it but like it was good but? It has everything that I think is awesome and it had great representation and stuff like that but it just was maybe a little too subtle for me? But I definitely recommend it to people who are looking for characters to relate to because they're all so easy to relate to tbh
Like you i bought the book without researching even though i always research the book and see reviews and stuff But this book idk who recommended it to me but i just bought it.. and i fell in LOVE with the story and the characters and i was sobbing at the end because it was that good and after finishing it i really wanted to make a podcast 😌♥️
It baffles me that more people aren’t acknowledging this!! I love that she has diverse characters, but it’s so clear that Alice is trying to write as if she understands the struggles of poc and lgbt+ when most of her information probably comes from social media.
Btw Alice had said in a q&a that Aled is Demisexual, i just knew that now. And i bought the book a month ago and i am still reading it... i am a slow reader.
ok so this book has been sitting on my to read list for a while and after hearing you talk about what it is about I was like why the fuck do I even want to read this book ??? tf I did not know it was about that ??? I'm ??? bUT THEN I saw the rest of the video and honestly,,, I'm hyped
Hey Casey! I barely ever comment, but I wanted to know if you have heard of the book Let's Talk About Love by Claire Kann? The protagonist is an asexual woman of color. It seems like a lot o people have enjoyed the novel and it is definitely on my TBR.
tbh i was an overarchiever in hs and all my teacher were sure i would go to med school but tbh if life didn't depend on grades, money and such.... there are so many things i would have loved to be (hairdresser, mua, graphic designer, etc.)
My major problem with this book is the asexual representation. To me it felt like a complete cop out. Like I understand that asexual people can feel sexually attracted to people and still be asexual, but because there is so little asexual representation already in media it felt like the author just threw it in for fun. In no way did the author show what it’s like to be asexual and the problems people go through being asexual.
Okay but Aled isn’t asexual, he’s demisexual. And though that’s under the ace umbrella, it’s still an identity all on it’s own. It’s an identity that doesn’t get represented in basically any media, even less than asexuality. By labeling him as she did, Oseman clears up confusion about him and his sexuality. I think you misunderstand what demisexuality is.
Casey Aonso I meant that Oseman wasn’t slating asexuals because Aled specifically on page says “I’m demisexual.” Which, although similar, is not the same identity. I appreciated the distinction because I’m demisexual as well, so the line meant a lot to me. But him saying that is not a slam on the asexual community because he’s still in the spectrum, if that makes sense.
Heather Sorry! I used asexual instead of ace because I thought most people wouldn’t understand what ace means and I couldn’t remember if Aled ever officially says he demi. I agree that demisexuality is severely under represented which is why I feel it would’ve been better if the book allowed it to be a bigger part of the storyline instead of a passing line or two.
Hi everyone! I know I'm late to this conversation, just wanted to chime in with a little representation info - Alice Oseman herself identifies as asexual (somewhere on the ace spectrum anyway, I don't want to label her) so you can be assured Aled's identity isn't just a "token ace character" thing. Aaaalso, the main character of her next book (no title yet, currently known online simply as "book four") id's as asexual. Her name is Georgia. she is also the narrator of the book. And from what I know, her sexuality will be a main theme. So keep an eye out for that. (If you want more info, I recommend going to Alice's tumblr: chronicintrovert.tumblr.com)
Old comment and I am sorry but I can kinda see it as like we aren’t seeing this book from his POV we are seeing it from Frances’ pov and that’s probably a reason why there isn’t such a big storyline or it seems kinda just tossed in I think idk lmao 😭
Radio Silence is one of my favourite books ever. I got kind of worried when I saw the title of this video because I've only seen Casey's rant reviews and thought she would hate it, but I think it's impossible to hate this book lol Anyway if you like this book definitely definitely definitely read Alice Oseman's other books. I would especially recommend her newest book I Was Born For This. One of the best YA novels I have ever read and has hella representation too!
oh, for the title i was expecting more a mystery-horror than a friendship-drama type of book, but struggling is something we can all relate, so maybe i'll give it a try, also no token poc characters and bi characters sounds great! plus i want to know that bitch who can catch your hands, casey, omg + i'm totally here for crying in public and life crisis generated from books
Sofía Espadas I actually loved the parallel between the mystery and horror of his podcast and the drama and friendship of his real life and how those overlapped. It’s one of my fav things about the book
Naw, Casey, you're supposed to let us see your full emotional breakdown, kinda like readwithcindy th-cam.com/video/pQqS7O_gcts/w-d-xo.html First part of that video cracked me up, but then... when the laughter stopped...
i gave it 2/5 really enjoyed it the writing style is amazing all the vibes are good, but it was all about aled! so annoying,and just a bit of Francis! which i wanted more of
Sia iere that’s interesting! I felt like Aled was almost used as a plot device for Frances to find herself and become confident and speak her mind. I feel like he helped her develop very well and she did the same for him
*kat from paperbackdreams screams in the distance*
For Paperback dream's (Kat's) sake, I hope you love this book 😅
Omg I’ve heard nothing but good things about this book
okay but the chapter Childish Kisses where Daniel is just pouring his heart out?? Physically hurt me, completely wasn't ready, got called out and got my heart ripped OUT.
I love this book so much it's so wholesome and broke me apart. I would completely recommend this book for everybody around the ages of 16-20 just by the college/future aspect alone. The friendships were so wholesome that it made me feel lonely lmao

the synopsis sounds like radio rebel
Noa Yakar which was already a badly done ripoff of the show Radio Free Rosco
I loved this book so much! It was super relatable and the characters actually felt realistic. Honestly this is how all contemporary YA should be
omg thats by alice oseman!! I absolutely love her comic heartstopper!! Radio silence is her 2nd book and her 3rd book just came out. Lmao sorry i like stan her
All of her books/comics have such nice representation its so satisfying
@@caseyaonso4270 pls i own all her books, she’s amazing honestly

The podcast your referring to in the book sounds similar to welcome to night vale
Alice has said that she was highly inspired by welcome to night vale
the author was really inspired by welcome to the night vale for the podcast universe city! it is mentioned in the book!
Loved the review! Just wanted to make a quick note that Aled actually says he's asexual and its hinted hes demisexual which is why he was only attracted to Daniel, who just happens to be a male. 💕❤

i’m screaming !!! this book is my fav in the whole world !
Did no one realize how badly Frances’ ethnicity was written????? Alice struggled with writing a POC main character. How did no one see that???
marigold kim The book had several flaws that i think no one noticed.
It baffles me that more people aren’t acknowledging this!! I love that she has diverse characters, but it’s so clear that Alice is trying to write as if she understands the struggles of poc and lgbt+ when most of her information probably comes from social media.
Hello, idk if you'll still read this but can you please explain it a bit more?
How do you think it was written badly? Not trying to start an argument at all, I'm just curious because I missed that and want to understand!

At first this whole thing reminded me of "Welcome to Nightvale". Even the colors of the book...
I love this video and book so much.
this book sounds a lot like Eliza and Her Monsters, honestly
Kaitlin J it’s 10x better lol. I’m sorry I thought Eliza was complete trash 🤮😬
_"I don't know how I'll beat her up....... but I will."_ O_o ... wut... *hahahaha!* Casey, you can be straight up gangsta sometimes, kiddo ;^D
wait until you find out Heartstopper on Netflix was written by her too
“i have one asian character in my book”
jk rowling be like: 👁👅👁
Awesome 😎
the fact that you said “Adele’s mum” and not “Aled’s mum” had me DYING of laughter

i heard sumn....
hellooooooooo

But I agree that I don't think the hype was worth it..
