*This book was given to me for a fair and honest review*Cassie Shine has made me a happy girl! I was eagerly awaiting this follow-up to Harp’s Song for what seemed like forever (even though it was a only a couple months, really). Going in, I was a little worried that the sequel would not live up to the first book for me. However, within the first chapter I was hooked, drawn back into Harp’s life and immersed in her story.I think that what I enjoy most about Cassie Shine’s creation of Harp is that she is relatable. She is a girl that is struggling to figure out who she is and what her place is in the world. Granted, Harp has lived a nightmare for the first 18 years of her life, but she did it with strength and wisdom beyond her years. Even when she stumbled, she found her footing quickly and did not let her past define who she is destined to become.Strangely, Harp’s mom became one of my favorite characters in this book. She was searching for redemption and found it in love and forgiveness not only from Harp, but within herself as well.Harp’s Song and subsequently Harp’s Voice are quickly becoming my favorite books to recommend. A beautifully woven tale of friendship, family, discovery, love and forgiveness, it is a must read. Bring your tissues…you will need them! I can not wait to read what Cassie has coming next!!!!Originally posted to Books Books Books Blog
