Beck hates his life. He hates his violent mother. He hates his home. Most of all, he hates the piano that his mother forces him to play hour after hour, day after day. He will never play as she did before illness ended her career and left her bitter and broken. But Beck is too scared to stand up to his mother, and tell her his true passion, which is composing his own music - because the least suggestion of rebellion on his part ends in violence.
When Beck meets August, a girl full of life, energy and laughter, love begins to awaken within him and he glimpses a way to escape his painful existence. But dare he reach for it?
Well then.
Here’s the thing and I’m going to be honest about it: I mainly
wanted to read this book because I follow C.G Drews on Instagram and her page
is the prettiest and that led me to her blog which is one of my faves, actually
and that is that - I wanted to read her
book because I enjoy her online presence. That said, I was pretty sure she
would be able to write – you can tell from her blog that she can write, I just didn’t quite
expect…this.
Wow. This is not eloquent. This is why I have not written a book.
