This Lullaby is a book that I relate mostly to the main character. Usually it's a supporting character that is kind of sort of like me.
Remy is an eighteen year old girl who is septic about anything related to feelings, especially love. Her father passed away before she was born. he was a famous musician leaving behind a song called "This Lullaby". Her mother is now getting married for the fifth time to a car sells man.
When her mom sends Remy to check with Don, the car sales men, about wedding details, she meets a messy musician, Remy's two least favorite traits, named Dexter.
Dexter pursues Remy, even though she is cold and snaps at him anytime he speaks. He even follows her to her work, a beauty salon/spa.
Remy's friends say that she should try dating someone she has real feelings for, but she denies that any feelings towards Dexter exsit.
The turning point in their friendship when Dexter's band, Truth Squad, does a cover of This Lullaby, the song Remy's dad left for her.
When Remy goes away to college, her brother is married, her mother is still married, and Remy is with Dexter. For the first time she knows what it's like to be happy.
When you talk about Remy being "septic," did you actually mean "skeptical" or "a skeptic"? See how that completely changes the meaning of the character? And her least favorite traits are messy musicians? An explanation might be necessary.
ReplyDeleteReview my last couple of sets of feedback. Let's see some analysis of the actual texts. Not so much the plot. I want to see you evaluate the writing and the pacing and the character development. Let's see some layering of content here...
