I'm being generous because it is Ashley Poston. Though, I'm starting to second guess my self-imposed hype around her. Was the amazingness that is Seven Year Slip just a fluke? The other books of hers have been pretty middle of the road. But also, magical realism isn't always my favorite. This one was fun, don't get me wrong, but there was no wow factor for me. Possibly trying to do too much - characters were navigating parental loss, failing careers, an alcohol problem, dementia... and I never picked up on the chemistry of the two MC's. But I'm sure music lovers in particular would enjoy this!
