A review by nnancy25
The Sound of Us by Julie Hammerle

5.0

So 2016 is turning out to be the year of contemporaries because so far there has not been a book I haven’t loved and The Sound of Us is no exception. The Sound of Us is the story of Kiki Nichols, a girl off to opera camp for six weeks the summer before senior year. However, it isn’t any other summer camp. At the end, the seven best voices will receive a full ride to Krause University to continue their development and education in opera and Kiki is determined to be one of the chosen seven. Despite having a heavy musical theme throughout, much like If I Stay by Gayle Forman, this book has a lot of aspects that as a reader, even one not immersed in music like myself, you can relate to.
