Back in February of last year, we reviewed The Song Remains the Same, Mom grabbed it when it came in and gave it 5 stars, the paperback copy is now out and I've glad to be able to offer another copy of the book for giveaway!
Synopsis: One of only two survivors of a plane crash, Nell Slattery wakes in the hospital with no memory of the crash or who she is, or was. Now she must piece together both body and mind with the help of family and friends who have their own agendas. She filters through photos, art, music and stories, hoping something will jog her memory, and soon – in tiny bits and pieces –Nell starts remembering. It isn’t long before she learns to question the stories presented by her mother, her sister and business partner, and her husband. In the end she will learn that forgiving betrayals small and large will be the only true path to healing herself and to finding happiness.
Our review: "This book held my attention from the very first page! The musical references were great- I hadn't thought about some of the included songs in years! They truly helped to frame the story and move it along. The story is intense and poignant, but very endearing. The author does a great job in keeping you guessing about what is next in the story. You feel compassion for the "Eleanor Rigby", plus hoping her former world, and current world, will come together gently and not fall apart into a million pieces. If they don't make this into a movie, something is wrong with the move industry! This story has too good of a plot to pass up! Put it on your must read list today!"
Having read the paperback version now, I have to add that this is a very moving story and one that will get you thinking about your own life, and taking the road less traveled for the experience, versus staying on the staid normal path. Call t a wake up story, but it is definitely a great read for the new year to inspire you to try new things!
