Thank you to the publishers and netgalley for giving me the opportunity to review this book The story has the right mixture of laughter and tears which jump out at you from each page, I like that in a book. The characters are great too. There was a lot going on in this book which really got you thinking. It was an enjoyable book with plenty of issues raised, it wasn't what I was expecting. Diese Rezension wurde für LibraryThing Early Reviewers geschrieben. While it seems a typical rom-com type read, I found it difficult to get into at first. It doesn't grab you with action but it is cutesy and fun. Certainly a good holiday or vacation read :) Diese Rezension wurde für LibraryThing Early Reviewers geschrieben. Faith has had an interesting life, to say the least, and while I expected the book to be humorous, judging from the cover, it turned out to be much more serious than I expected. I admire Faith's positive attitude and how she handles her various situations. I appreciated the strength of the friendships that Faith has and the ones that she makes and how her friends support her through everything. There are some sad sections of the book, and I did struggle to understand a few things. Oddly enough, I have a hard time with the camping experience. Being an experienced camper, I saw several flaws, one a dangerous one - you cannot cook inside a tent. That can be lethal, and it did disturb me that it was in the book. I realize that's a petty observation considering the levity of so many of the situations, but it did stick in my mind. Diese Rezension wurde für LibraryThing Early Reviewers geschrieben. I found "The Name I Call Myself" hard to read through to the end. Too much emotional baggage with her obsessive need to control her brother's mental state. I read the ending when I was over half way through. Then I read the middle to the end to see what happened with the Choir! The Choir is an awesome part of the book. The drama with her brother's health is treated equally but it's boring, in that it's been written about and delved into in our society a lot. But. that is true with singing, also. Kind of makes it a trite and unimaginative book. I don't recommend this book.keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
All Faith Harp wants is a quiet life - to take care of her troubled brother, Sam, earn enough money to stop the wolves snapping at her heels, and to keep her past buried as deep as possible. And after years of upheaval, she might have just about managed it: she's engaged to the gorgeous and successful Perry, is holding down a job, and Sam's latest treatment seems to actually be working this time. But, for Faith, things never seem to stay simple for long. Her domineering mother-in-law-to-be is planning a nightmare wedding, including the wedding dress from hell. And the man who killed her mother is released from prison, sending her brother tumbling back into mental illness. When secretly planning the wedding she really wants, Faith stumbles across a church choir that challenges far more than her ability to hold a tune. She ends up joining the choir, led by the fierce choir-mistress, Hester, who is determined to do whatever it takes to turn the motley crew of women into something spectacular. She also meets Dylan, the church's vicar, who is different to any man she has ever met before. Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
