The beauty of Cheap Guitars-the aspect of the novel that truly stands out-is the ensemble cast, the love and friendship between the group, and how the lines of romantic love and friendship are sometimes blurred. The story focuses on Elise and Brandon, best friends since childhood, who allow one night of passion to destroy everything they’ve built. Their choices result in a four-year separation where each grows in different ways. Elise, who chose the most drastic path following the destruction of their relationship, is forced to mature the most as she finds herself disconnected completely from not only Brandon, but friends and family. Her return home sets off a series of events that no one expected, most especially the immediate escalation of the feelings that she and Brandon threw away four years ago.
The cast of characters that make up Cheap Guitars are compelling and stay with you long after the book is finished. Miller has a good plot with a nice twist that will make readers eager to read the next book.
I received a copy of this book through Booksprout in exchange for honest feedback.
