Table of ContentsReviewsHailey's character is well-constructed, her narrative voice consistent, so that we really do feel that she is talking to us, not the author. We feel more keenly, then, the betrayal Hailey struggles to come to terms with, and her mature realization that one cannot be responsible for others' choices and behaviours. In a world of stiff competition, Hailey learns, it is difficult but necessary to retain one's integrity and sense of self above all else. -- (10/19/2016) The story is interesting, and I enjoyed the novel especially for the suspense that the author creates through a skillful use of dialogue and character development. Any reader who is interested in any form of performing arts would find High Note entertaining... Highly Recommended. -- (01/27/2017) Hailey's character is well-constructed, her narrative voice consistent, so that we really do feel that she is talking to us, not the author.
