The trilogy series was based on a true story featuring snapshots of the author's life growing up with a severe hearing loss. Many real life scenarios have been incorporated into the story to provide a rich and sometimes, gritty setting that can be shocking at times to read. Aside from the moral lesson of dealing with a disability, it offers an amazing sense of appreciation of how much it takes to persevere through a difficult time in life. Destiny is a magical read that offers a unique insight into the world of a young woman who just happens to be hearing impaired.

Testimonials:
"Destiny by Jennifer Gibson is heart-breakingly touching. In Destiny, we follow Jessie not only through her trials in high school, but also as she moves into the adult world of jobs, stalkers, and life-changing decisions. I thought Destiny, like Sway and Compass, to be a thought-provoking glimpse into a world all of us need to understand."
- Taylor, Reviewer (4.6 Stars!)
"Well, needless to say, Jennifer Gibson has done it again in the sequel to Sway and Compass. Jessie is older now and facing the prospect of looking for work. It is a daunting challenge, complicated by her disability, of course, but even further complicated by the petty cruelty of those she must deal with on a daily basis. I found this book to be even more heart-wrenching and enlightening than the first two. Destiny is not a book to be taken lightly. I believe every adult and young adult should read it."
- Regan, reviewer (4.7 Stars!)
