The Songbird's Call by Rachael Herron
4.0
I was given a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
I have a major problem with Rachael's books, I always end up at 2am fighting to keep my eyes open wanting desperately to know what is going to happen next whilst not wanting the book to end... Her characters are always realistic, they have issues and brains and they talk to each other, which is something that tends to be sorely lacking in a lot of romance books. You end up rooting for the people to do well, to feel better and not just to get together and have things all wrapped up in a pretty bow. At the same time it's great romance and smoking hot in places which isn't an easy thing to pull off and doesn't come that often in any kind of book.
There's also a sense of fun in these books (and all the Darling Bay books), they're not heavy heavy and depressing, they're uplifting, and although I wasn't a huge fan of the public way this particular story wrapped up I really enjoyed the book, even though it was far too short and over too quickly! Hurry up with the next one Rachael!
