"Sorry to pick this. Just saying the title's enough, really, isn't it? I know it's really obvious, but it's such a masterpiece. 

It's been strangely hard picking my albums for this, as lots of things don't resonate with me now like they used to when I was younger. I've been listening a lot more to classical and choral music in the last year, for example, but this fits in with that, because this is sacred music. It's music that transcends genre. Every track is profoundly beautiful – and I say that having liked Talk Talk before this, too. I remember the first album coming out at the same time as Duran Duran's Rio, and people comparing them, then hearing The Colour Of Spring. 'Life's What You Make It' was a big song when I was at sixth form. But this album… this is a bigger thing. I still love it so much.

I finished this a little after midnight last night and am once again compelled to give this 5 stars.

This one was a lot happier than the first, they actually have a proper relationship, not the sneaking behind everyone's back kind of thing they had going on in the first. I am a little confused though as to whether their stories been concluded with this. I know there's a third book coming soon, Braille, but does it continue with Alex and Jesse or does it focus more on the band members?

I have so many questions after reading this too. What was wrong with Cord? Who was the girl? Who's Beth seeing?

Anyway, I'm glad that everything's out in the open regarding Ethan and Alex's parents abandonment. I still have no idea why they ran off and left her behind anyway, especially her dad. Her mum at least has an excuse.
