This book was okay but I also don't think I'm the target audience that this book would be marked to. I liked the story but it felt very rushed. Everything was happening so fast I felt like I didn't get to enjoy certain moments before being rushed to the next thing going on.

Interesting writing style...although I feel like I struggled to connect in that I don't have a music-brain, music is not something that pulls me in ways like it does other people.

A little over the top at times but I still read it in a day, so something went right for me.
