This is a story about love, but not the kind of love you
think. You’ll see… In the lush and magical Pacific Northwest live two best
friends who grew up like sisters: charismatic, mercurial,
and beautiful Aurora, and the devoted, watchful narrator.
Each of them is incomplete without the other. But their
unbreakable bond is challenged when a mysterious and gifted
musician named Jack comes between them. His music is like nothing I have ever heard. It is like the
ocean surging, the wind that blows across the open water,
the far call of gulls. Suddenly, each girl must decide what matters most:
friendship, or love. What both girls don’t know is that the
stakes are even higher than either of them could have
imagined. They’re not the only ones who have noticed Jack’s
gift; his music has awakened an ancient evil—and a world
both above and below which may not be mythical at all. We
have paved over the ancient world but that does not mean we
have erased it.
The real and the mystical; the romantic and the
heartbreaking all begin to swirl together in All Our Pretty
Songs, Sarah McCarry's brilliant debut, carrying the two on
journey that is both enthralling and terrifying.
And it’s up to the narrator to protect the people she
loves—if she can.
