Not Another Love Song by Julie Soto

4.5

So far I’ve loved everything written by Julie Soto. 

“Give this a chance. The two of us. I’m not good with words…I’m good with notes on page”. 

📚 rivals to lovers
📚 mutual pining
📚 slow burn
📚 professional musicians

|Thoughts|
Fell in love with the characters in the symphony of love. Particularly enjoyed the machinations of the symphony. If only we could hear the beautiful music being played on the pages.  

“If he admitted that entire symphonies had unfurled in his mind when they played together…”

Although this was predominantly single PoV (FMC), there were some insights into Alex’s PoV dispersed throughout the story (wished we got more or a full dual PoV). 

“But being utterly hypnotized by a nobody, playing “Jesu, Joy of Man’s Desiring” of all things, was unsettling”

Some small cameos from Forget Me Not which was a nice little surprise. And that scene with the cello, oh my (see the cover illustrated by Nikita Jobson). There is a part where I wish he fought a little harder, but still happy with the HEA. 

“There is something exciting about sight-reading. Don’t you agree”?

For lovers of Ali Hazelwood, music and love. 

“Please make music with me. I need you in my life”

“It’s simple, really. It’s about a cello who fell in love with a violin”
