Review: A Sweet Taste of Love and Rock Music Combined
Rating: 5 out of 5
Date: 10 3, 2011
This novella has only 56 pages--short but really good! I didn't know what to expect when I agreed to read it but I'm glad I did. I just knew that it would be a short read, but I never thought that I would enjoyed it so much.The story gives us a glimpse of both Jake and Alyssa's life. What it was like for Jake to be the front man of a rising rock band as he'd come to realize that his feelings for his younger neighbor Alyssa is something he could no longer ignore. Then he began to make decisions that soon will affect everything he worked so hard to achieve.If you happen to have doubt about this book, I'd say give it a try. You most likely end up enjoying it. I easily loved the main characters, they're true to their feelings and that made them very likable. Seeing the story in both Jake and Alyssa's POV made me understand them well enough, and I was glad to see how their feelings for each other started to flourish. I was even more thrilled to see Jake's written composition in the last part of the novella--the lyrics and the music fits the story perfectly, and the original mp3 music (which I listened to the nth time after reading the book) makes the story seem even more intense and real. It still gives me chill whenever I listen to it. I can't wait to see what will happen next and I'm sure to be one of those fans who will eagerly anticipate for the next book. I hope Ms. Ann Frohoff writes fast =)With the flavor combination of rock music and the sweet but sometimes bitter taste of teen romance, I'm sure lots of readers will enjoy this series. I'm direly waiting for the next book!
