Review: Rival by Sara Bennett Wealer


Rival
by
Sara Bennett Wealer

Beautifully written, Wealer has brought us a novel quite different from what's out there. The passion for the music is so amazing. Rival has brought me back to a time that I miss, a time that only the glory that music can bring.

Brooke Dempsey seems to have it easy. She seems to have it all. She has all the friends you can imagine. She has the looks, money, and any guy she wants. She also had the ability to bring down Kathryn and ruin her name throughout the school all because she has the power. And because she could.
But why did this happen?
They used to be best friends.
They both have killer amazing singing voices and are up against each other to receive a scholarship.
Kathryn needs that money. Why can't Brooke just leave her alone? What is she still hiding? Only time will tell.

4/5 Stars. 327 Pages. Published by HarperTeen. Purchased at Amazon

  5. I loved this book, too. It really does bring the reader back to a time when (if?) they did anything with music--glad you enjoyed it, too :D
