Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for sending me a review copy of this book!
Unfortunately, this book didn’t quite work for me; I suspect it’s more my fault than the book’s. It just wasn’t the right time. I’m trying to write a romance novel, and I’m full up on romance at the moment. Still, this is a cute and well-written story—albeit, as hinted at by the title, a bit bland and forgettable.
This is one of the few times I’ve read a book from Netgalley which I feel maybe I should reread one day. The concept of a girl haunted literally and figuratively by her past is an interesting one, and I like that the plot revolves so heavily around music. Unfortunately, I just couldn’t connect to the characters (I can’t even remember their names off-hand) and their romance seems a little thin.
Still, this is an okay young adult novel—it’s getting great reviews, so I’m sure it’s just me.
