Jonas and Olivia

Wow, what a fun, sweet story!

While there were a few things that didn't add up with the musical stuff a piano would have been referred to as "pianoforte" still, and historic gut strings on a violin would have crumbled to nothingness in thirty years of disuse and a few oopses in formatting, I'm breaking all my rules of perfection on this one and giving it all five stars because Jonas and Olivia were just so special!! Read it as soon as you can.

This sweet story was charming and a delight. My favorite aspect was the fun, quirky characters. They pulled me in right away and kept me intrigued throughout. The surprises along the journey were unique and unpredictable. I really enjoyed this story. There is plenty of room for growth with this author, and I'm interested to see how her storytelling skills sharpen and strengthen with time.

Rating: 4 stars
Reason(s): Lack of quality copyediting and/or proofreading, lead had an odd obsession with her deceased father, and child endangerment issues in a couple of chapters near the end.
