Song Stuck on the Brain: Hear You Me by Jimmy Eat World
MY TAKE:
I enjoyed Twilight Serenade a lot. Maybe because I felt like I could identify with Britta in some ways, even though I don't play an instrument and I haven't been secretly in love with someone for 17 years. Her character though, felt like a reflection somehow of me and I found that appealing. Her struggle with choices and balancing her own desires with God's will and the wants of those around her was real and compelling. But her ability to love was inspiring. Seeing that love save those around her was a beautiful experience.
ABOUT THE BOOK:
But Britta's other great love is for the violin, and her talent is recognized by Brenton Maltese, a conductor from England. He proposes she accept the coveted first chair position in his orchestra...and also his hand in marriage. At a crossroads, Britta must determine what her heart truly longs for--and if she's willing to fight for it.
At a Crossroads, Britta must determine what her heart truly longs for─and if she's willing to fight for it.
