So far this book has been pretty interesting. I was surprised at how long it took for the band to be formed. Though I was pleased to see their first two performances went well. One thing that I can't seem to get my head around is Carson's ego. He seems to think he is completely in charge. Whjle it might have been his idea to form the band in the first place. Everyone should have a say in how the band in run. For instance Carson dictates what clothes each other the band members will wear. That seems to be a bit excessive. A band should be judged on how well they preform music. Not what they are wearing.
Another thing that is hard for me to accept about this book is Magpie's friendship with Jim. I mean the age difference alone is a little mind boggling. He is in his thirties and she is fifteen years old. That's an age gap of at least fifteen years. From Jim's behavior around Maggie it seems that he really wants her to like him. But I don't he is solely interested in being friends with her. The oddest part is that Maggie seems to be falling for him. I can barely believe it as I read. But the author has some purpose for this some i'm going to just keep on reading. My personal opinion is that Maggie should end up at least dating Carson. One of those reason is that he is much closer in age.
