This made my heart sing in a way that only the most charming and well-written YA contemporary novels can! Rachel Lynn Solomon has a knack for characterization and has certainly secured a spot on my auto-read list. Here, I wanted just a touch less on the relationship between Quinn and Tarek and a bit *more* on Quinn's relationships in general -- i.e. those with her parents, her best friend, her harpist mentor (!), etc. -- because I think they form (and drive) the self-growth at the heart of the novel. Truly, though, a joy to read.
