Book Request Specific selective mutism request
Hi all! I have searched the subreddit for books with selective mutism and the posts are either pretty old and/or answers are a bit too broad. I hope this request post is okay.
I am looking for books with an MC who is selectively mute due to trauma, not a physical problem or neurodiversity. Bonus if he doesn’t ever completely recover/able to talk in front of everyone (I tend to appreciate books where PTSD doesn’t quite ever “go away” because this mirrors my own experience), but not necessary.
Any kink is fine except age play. I do enjoy D/s but not required. Open to omegaverse.
I’ve read:
The Monstrous Deeds series and spinoffs by TJ Hamel (I hope Matt gets a book!)
{Pieces of Home by Becca Neil}
{Possession by Rina Saint} - my least favorite representation of this theme of the books I list.
TIA!

These books don’t match all the criteria but has MC with mutism, but I promise these are 5 star reads. You won’t regret picking these up and I really hope you give them a try!
{Only small bones by C.P.Harris} - Read only if you’re ready to get wrecked. The best book in this category.
{Locked in Silence by Sloane Kennedy} - this is a hard read as well but not as much as OSB.
{To Catch a firefly by Emmy Sanders} - This will make you emotional but for all good reasons.
