Review
Based on a real life experience Tallia Storm has written a novel that will appeal to all dreamy eyed singers with large goals. When Storm, an accomplished high school singer is forced to miss a radio spot due to a family vacation the world looks bleak. As life happens the author has introjected her own experience when Elton John heard her sing; an event that started her pop singing career.
The story is a little rough but all the dreamy aspects are in place. Girls who have achieved in school music or drama will identity with the intensity exhibited by Storm. The author has captured the need to be on stage and the thrill of performing. This is a story that will be welcomed by middle school girls and might wind up in public libraries. The cost of the paperback is unfortunately high for its quality.
Overall Book Score: good
