I think it went too far too fast. within a week people are going crazy and k1!!1ng each other? and the whole world kind of ends in a sense because of no music? don't get me wrong, music is very important and it'd be a deafening silence, but I don't see it going this far, especially that fast.
and we never really got much of an answer on the "people" that "stole" the music.
just not my cup of tea I guess.

The Day The Music Died
I've had music, all music, ruined for me - twice. The thought of turning something on to listen to depressed me into almost immobility. IDK what pulled me out of those stages, but what if I didn't have the choice to turn something on? Would it be worse?
I can definitely see, to a certain extent, how not having ANY music would cause trouble in the world. Music soothes the savage beast, right?
Would the world react like humanity does in this book? Let's hope that we never find out.

This is a book about what could happen if music was taken from the world .
Okay for me this book was weak the only characters I liked was poor Sarah and the other worldly creator the main character did nothing for me I truly didn't like him . I get what this Author was going for but she missed something vital in the execution .

Another out standing book
She never disappoints me I love her books. It's always interesting from start to finish. I feel like I know characters personally.
