Can anyone recommend a shorter book with a blind main character? I'm not really feeling any of the titles I could find so far. Maybe Straight from the Hip, but I would love a few more suggestions. On the shorter side would be great! Thanks!
Fran, you can also read any book that is available in audio - there are a lot of those! If you need help, give me a list of books you are considering and I can check if they are in audio. I suggest this because the only books with a blind character that I can think of, I'm pretty sure you have already read too.
Thanks Kat :)I really like stories with characters with disabilities so I was hoping to get some new recs. But a bunch I found are historical and I'm not into that genre right now.
I hope someone has some suggestions then!

A lot of historicals (my fav lol), but the first contemporary romance that caught my eye was Heartsight by Kay Springsteen and it's on the shorter side with only 222 pages.

One last rec if you like romantic suspense...
. I think she is legally blind and IIRC almost completely blind by the end of the book. I really enjoyed it!
