There are some differences from the version used in the movie. (0 more)
I don't have much to say about the album that hasn't been said already. It is amazing. Easily the best part of the movie because each song is full of emotion and energy.

I would like to say that I noticed there was some character swapping going on between the soundtrack version and the movie versions. In "A Million Dreams" I'm pretty sure Charity is supposed to sing one of the verses, and I don't think she does on the album, and in "This is Me" Charlie is supposed to sing the second verse, but Lettie does on the album. It doesn't ruin the soundtrack for me, I just thought it was interesting.

If I had to pick a favorite song, I would have to choose Tightrope because it is very emotional and simple, and I love the subject of the song. It's totally something I would want played at my wedding if I ever got married.

Charlie Harris has joined the Friends of the Library board in time for their annual Christmas fundraiser. Unfortunately, he’s walked into a feud that has been going on for years between the elderly Ducote sisters and Vera Cassity, who likes to think of herself as a bigger deal in town than she is. The night of the gala, Vera takes a tumble down the stairs and breaks her neck. With the sheriff looking at Azalea, Charlie’s housekeeper, he needs to figure out what really happened.

As a fan of the Southern Ladies series, I was quite anxious to read the book that introduced the Ducote sisters. They are as much fun here as they are in their own series. We get to see a different side of a couple of series regulars as well, which I really enjoyed. The plot was strong and kept me going until the surprising yet logical conclusion.

Old Acquaintance by Annabelle Jacobs
Old Acquaintance is a semi-seasonal story about two men who reunite after many years apart. Their separation was caused by life, and jobs, and the fact they never got on when they were at school, for reasons only known to one of them.

The story takes place on the build up to Christmas (hence the semi-seasonal), but it doesn't focus on the season! Instead, quite rightly, it focuses on Sam and Charlie. You stay with them as they work through their attraction, and communication issues, and even bring up history from the past.

There were no editing or grammatical errors that disrupted my reading. This is a lovely book, with a real feel-good vibe to it. Funny in places, and low-angst in others, this was the getaway-from-everything book I needed. Most definitely recommended by me.

* A copy of this book was received by me with no requirements for a review. I voluntarily read this book, and the comments here are my honest opinion. *

Broken Masterpiece by Tee Smith ~~FREE~ Limited time only.

When nothing makes sense, who do you trust?

With no memory of her past, Charlie has no choice but to cling to what she knows, and what she’s been told. But what if none of that is real?

Desperate for answers, she searches for remnants of the life she had. Her last memory was more than ten years ago. She has a husband who loves her, a nice home in the suburbs, but she can’t shake the feeling he is hiding something.

What if everyone she trusts have their own agenda?

As her memory returns and the lies become known, there is no way of going back.

Sometimes not knowing the truth can be a blessing, rather than a curse.

Broken Masterpiece is a story of violence, manipulation and above all else, survival.
