I rather enjoyed this book. I liked our two main characters and how they interacted with each other. I thought Oscar and Ruby's relationship was believable for their age. It was a sweet romance, and kind of awkward at moments, because there were times when neither of them knew what to say or do.
I haven't read a lot of books with characters who are composers or anything like that, so this was a breath of fresh air. I learned a lot of new terms.
And the characters grow A LOT throughout the book. Ruby is lost ans unsure of what she wants to do with her life, because for so long she thought she wanted to be a pianist. It was nice getting to see her figure out what she loved and grow into herself. I like that she finally stood up to her mom and let her feelings be known, but wasn't belligerent about it.
I do think the characters came off as being older than their 17 years at times, and when they talked they used big words, that I had to look up. But I enjoyed that because I now have some new words in my repertoire.
