I enjoyed being swept away in this delightful novel!
The stage the mystery oh my stars just a lot of cool things going on in this story!
This author has nabbed it to a tea. You could tell that this wonderful lady has done her research very well.
I loved this story for many reasons. First, the stage. I have had stage experience but with an orchestra not acting. Playing in the pit was cool. Most exciting so I could see in my mind Sophie Walter's doing her part and in another timeline Elise playing her violin for the Philly orchestra. I could see her doing something like that.
I have a vivid imagination and I love when authors describe things like that.
I really really didn't want this book to end. It had so many emotions, lessons and to me the biggest lesson was.....well, yall just have to read this amazing and exciting story!
You'll find yourself making friends with the ladies and one certain gentleman who in my opinion is the real hero.
Here's a favorite quote from the story
God's plan hadn't seemed to make sense but then neither did sheet music at first glance. To most it looked it looked like varying dots smattered across lines. But those notes were deliberate, placed for a specific purpose. But when strung together, they made a song.
And this is very true for me when I first started learning the piano. They were like a puzzle until you put it all together. Still true when learning to read sheet music in the orchestra but unlike Elise it's my passion. I didn't know who I'd be without God and music.
Thank you for a wonderful adventure.
5 stars for a job well done! I highly recommend!
