Thank you to the author for a gifted audiobook.

I HAVE THOUGHTS.

I enjoyed much of this. It kind of falls a predictable story line, but I just rolled with it and got into the story. I thought the hidden identities trope played well here, and the celebrity romance aspects were fun too. It was unique to have a blind FMC and I loved learning and understanding from that perspective. The music journalism aspects were great too.

There were some good growth moments and I liked seeing Jenny grow up. With big life decisions before her she made some tough choices and learned from mistakes. I was originally okay with the third act conflict, but then I felt it was stretched out to some dramatic proportions that I found myself more frustrated with than anything. I hit a point where I was ready to wrap things up.

The audiobook was good and I liked listening in that format. The narrator did a great job with the accents and bringing the characters to life.
