A sweet story that is structurally kind of a mess. As a professional musician, I‘m always wary of books having to do with music because often the author has no idea what they are talking about, but this book, despite the title, has very little to do with music, actually.

After a couple of clients recommended this simply because of the name, I requested this book. Alexander McCall Smith always leaves me with a soft smile, so how could I resist? I ended up falling in love with this La as she found her own ways to resist the darkness. Such a lovely read!

I thought this was a cute story about a women living during World War II. It is a little slow going and I don't like all of the plot choices he made. But overall an easy, enjoyable read.

Thought-provoking portion from tonight's race-to-the-finish reading. I don't know; I just really like the way this conversation's worded. From "it's 1931 and that's all we have" to "That was easily said by a tutor in a women's college."

This is perfect summer reading! It's a war story about a little village and the woman who organizes an "orchestra" to do their part. A sweet story!
