All Our Pretty Songs

Additional Book Details

<p>This is a story about love, but not the kind of love you think. You'll see…<br><br>In the lush and magical Pacific Northwest live two best friends who grew up like sisters: charismatic, mercurial, and beautiful Aurora, and the devoted, watchful narrator. Each of them is incomplete without the other. But their unbreakable bond is challenged when a mysterious and gifted musician named Jack comes between them.<br><br>His music is like nothing I have ever heard. It is like the ocean surging, the wind that blows across the open water, the far call of gulls.<br>Suddenly, each girl must decide what matters most: friendship, or love. What both girls don't know is that the stakes are even higher than either of them could have imagined. They're not the only ones who have noticed Jack's gift; his music has awakened an ancient evil—and a world both above and below which may not be mythical at all. We have paved over the ancient world but that does not mean we have erased it. <br>The real and the mystical; the romantic and the heartbreaking all begin to swirl together in All Our Pretty Songs, Sarah McCarry's brilliant debut, carrying the two on journey that is both enthralling and terrifying. <br>And it's up to the narrator to protect the people she loves—if she can. </p>
