You're doing great, Elishia. Not everyone has figured out how to post the book cover and you did it first time!

I'm glad you've joined us.

I read this yesterday and gave it 4 stars. The hero plays the guitar and piano.

Great cover. He looks so satisfied!

I finished this yesterday. The heroine played the cello, and music pretty much defines her. I gave this one three stars. It was good, but something especially toward the end just felt off for me surrounding the resolution. I haven't reviewed it yet. I am still mulling over my thoughts. :)

I read this last year, Bambbles Rambles, and also gave it 3*. I liked it, just didn't love it.

Eloisa James is a hit and miss author for me. More misses than hits, but a couple of her books have rocked my socks!

I finished this book the other day and need to decide what letter to put it under, it covers a few of them. But I finally decided it would be 'K' Brad Boney's book The Return was an incredibly, enjoyable read.

I had the same problem of trying to figure out which category to put one of the books I read in.

Yeah, Eloisa James has been hit or miss for me, as well, especially lately. My hopes are tentatively high for her next book due to its tangential relation to the Desperate Duchesses series. I really liked the story arc of that series. Fingers crossed.

One of the minor characters plays the violin. I'm hoping she'll get her own story, because her interactions with another character were charming.

The Harper's Quine (Gil Cunningham, #1)

While still alive, the murder victim used to be a harper's companion (and he had taught her to play the harp as well). The mystery opens with a May Day presentation given by the titular harper and his companions; music continues to be used as a narrative feature throughout the book.

My review.
