Review: Nice, but lacked spark

I've always been a fan of the Keller's. I've loved seeing how their lives have evolved over the years and the kids taking centre-stage as adults. However in comparison to its predecessors, Love Songs fell a little flat.Don't get me wrong, it's well-written and Clara and Warner are loveable characters.  She has grown into a strong, independent, determined woman devoted to her family. He's lost his way a little, has suffered family tragedy and is a loner. With an evil stepmother hell-bent on breaking him, my heart went out to him.On the whole though it's steady going. The I love you's came too quick and it lacked the passion, fight and romance of earlier books. That said it's still a nice easy read and with the characters we have grown to love ever present, it's an addition you'll want to read if you are a fan. When all's said and done they are an amazing family and I'm really looking forward to Chris' story. The opening chapter included held a shocker.
