Karen is a cello player who dreams of making it big in the New York Philharmonic Orchestra. And Connor is a hot ass Irishman who plays the electric guitar, and plays it really well. Like Jimmy Hendrix well. They both go to Fenbook and are in their senior year. Karen is more of a geek (her words, not mine) who only studies and rarely goes out. Connor is a party animal womanizer who only parties and plays gigs and rarely studies. Oil and water....I didn't like this book as much as I liked Dance for Me. We got to see more of the whole crew from Dance with Me, so I really liked that we had the continuation of those relationships. We get to see if our couples are still on cloud nine... I'm totally not telling you, you have to read it! With In Harmony, I think when it comes to Karen, I saw a lot of myself in her. She is very timid, doing things for everyone else first, living your life the way some people think you should, super shy, blushes all the time, not very sexually educated. Well, at least at a young age that was me, the not sexually educated part. She's a virgin and reads smut. See what I mean, she's like my book sista! Anyway, when she was going back and forth about whether or not to tell Connor how she felt, I was like come on! Tell him already!! But she was so back and forth. I'm gonna tell him. Im gonna wait. I'm gonna tell him. Nope, gonna wait. I'm like GAH! Come on!! I need to know what's gonna happen! Just do it! But I was getting mad at him too. Did he like her or not? Stop giving mixed signals Irish! I will tell you this. There was more than a few times when I found myself actually laughing at Karen. I don't know why or what caused it, but I would find myself randomly giggling.. But you know who drove me absolutely mad, besides her dad!?!? Ruth. What the heck was that chicks problem?? Someone seriously needs to give that chick a butt kicking! All her back handled compliments were so petty. I really would've liked to see more of a confrontation between her an Karen at the end, or her telling Connor what Ruth did. Something. Anyway I liked this. I love how they melded their lives and their music together to help each other. To help everyone. I definitely can't wait to see where Neil and Clarissa take us.... The little sex fiends.
