Old Town Symphony by Milla Holt

Old Town Symphony is the second book I have read by Milla Holt, and I was completely blown away. I think this might be my favorite one in this series.

The character development was great. Kezia had lots of layers to her. She is trying to make things on her own, choosing her own path rather than the path her parents planned for her. She is not quite making it on her own, but her voice sure is known. When she decides to join the show, we really see how alone she is in this world. Seeing her process this was heartbreaking. I was rooting for Kezia the whole way. Zach has his own things he is processing. Some things that he isn’t even aware of.

The setting was great. I loved the setting being set in the United Kingdom. It’s not often we get to see the music industry from the UK side. I also loved the music reality TV setting. It was such a fun concept, and to see the ‘behind the scenes’ aspects of that, as well as the music industry. The storyline was great. The start of a music reality TV show had some fun dynamics. We have a family deep in the music industry, broken family relationships, loneliness, competition, longing for more, music industry, songwriting, forbidden romance, and more.

This slow-burning, enemies-to-lovers romance was great, and kisses only.

Milla Holt did a good job of intertwining faith throughout the novel.
