A fellow book reviewer, Heidi M. Simone, bring us her first novel in the Siren series, Music to My Ears. The main character Sophia is a talented flautist and singer. Music has always played a big part in her life and she wants to continue that with a chance to audition as a flautist and songwriter for an upcoming movie in New York City. Before she leaves she wants to have one last visit with a friend, Jeremy. Jeremy has been in Rhode Island Hospital for the past four years due to an incident that happened on a nearby beach. Sophia was also there that day, and feels she might somehow be responsible for the incident. She's not sure how, but she knows something is different about her.
Sophia moves to New York and prepares to audition for the movie. While staying in city, Sophie meets a charming, young man named Dante who is also working on the movie. Sophia and Dante spend lots of time together using their musical talents. Through Sophia's expression of music, Dante is able to tell there is something different about her. Dante is able to help Sophia understand how and why she is different. But that's only because he knows people who don't like Sophia's kind. Despite their developing romantic relationship, they are putting themselves in danger of the wrong people finding out about Sophia.
I really enjoyed the unique story line of this book. It was creative and kept me engaged throughout the novel. The author was able to keep my attention with suspense and action-packed scenes. When I first started reading the book, I thought I already knew what the main character was. Therefore I was pleasantly surprised when it turned out to be something completely different. The book seemed professionally edited because I found no errors. There really wasn't anything that I disliked about the book. Therefore I give Music to My Ears a 4 out of 4 rating.
When I was reading this book, I felt it was best suited for young adult readers. It is appropriate for most audiences because it had no bad language and little sexual content. I think the book would be enjoyed most by those who like to read romance and fantasy.
I highly recommend reading about the author at the end of the novel as well. Despite having trouble with reading and writing at a young age, Simone overcomes these barriers. She is writing book reviews, blogs, and now even books of her own. It is truly an inspiring story. It's great to see she is successfully transitioning from book reviewer to author.
