Erm...where to start? Well, when I bought this I didn't realise it was about classical music, the synopsis was very vague but I guess the "prestigious Guarneri music prize" should have given it away. Classical is not my favourite genre of music so hearing them talking about all these famous pieces...
I can’t remember the last time I loved a book that made me so so angry! Virtuosity did it for me. I must say I experienced a roller coaster ride of emotions. There were moments I felt happy and mesmerised and others where I felt sad and furious. Martinez writes beautifully and knows how to surprise ...
A pretty interesting triangle:A girl, a boy and the violin.I really don't have any connection with instruments of any kind. I love listening to music but that's it - I don’t know how to make and read it. I don’t know why I never learned. Sigh. Virtuosity is a simple story that is very inspiring and ...

Okay, first and foremost I must start this by saying I didn't hate this book. I didn't love it like I had hoped, but I didn't detest it. Honestly it just wasn't for me in the long run. Me and classical music is like mixing oil and water. It just doesn't go. So with the majority of this book being ab...
3.5 stars. I really liked It. But it could be so much better. It was fascinating to read about teenagers with such single minded purpose in life. Never in my life had I that drive, that passion about anything. That's why I enjoy reading about it so much. That alone gave the book 2.5 stars. The situ...
This book was meh. Not anything too special, but not bad either. There were small glimmers of hope, but they never really did it for me. It might be because I have only really read very fluffy chick-lit (since I hardly ever read it), or it might just be because the word 'violin' made me have too hig...
