This book hasn’t been on my TBR very long but my daughter is a violinist and she loves dragons. I happened to get this from Netgalley recently and I’m hoping to squeeze it in my already insane amount of reviews I have lined up. I can do this, right?!
The Dragon’s Playlist by Laura Bickle
Published by Pronoun on June 1st 2017
From the author of THE HALLOWED ONES and NINE OF STARS comes a new novel blending the magical and the real…
“This is war,” the dragon said. And she believed him.
Di fled rural West Virginia to study music and pursue a bright future as a violinist. But when a mining accident nearly kills her father, she is summoned back home to support her family. Old ghosts and an old flame emerge from the past. When Di gets a job as a bookkeeper at the same mine where her father worked, she is drawn into a conflict pitting neighbor against neighbor as the mine plans an expansion to an untouched mountain.
If the mining company’s operation goes forward, there will be more at stake than livelihoods or the pollution of the land: Di has discovered a dragon lives deep within Sawtooth Mountain, and he is not happy with this encroachment upon his lair. When catastrophe strikes, Di must choose between her family’s best interests and protecting the dragon – the last surviving bit of magic in Di’s shrinking world.
In every fight, sides are chosen. And there can be no yearning for what has been left behind.
Ooh!! Looks good :)
Good to see a post from you! Either my Reader wasn’t showing them or my phone was acting up!
The app is wonky for me lately! Keeps crashing
