Editorial Reviews

From Library Journal

There's a little discord in this latest title on Melody Logan, celebrated in the best-selling Melody and Heart Song: her mother might still be alive.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not the best book in the Logan series, July 9, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Unfinished Symphony (Mass Market Paperback)

This book did not get interesting until about the middle. The first half was just endless, boring descriptions of Melody's trip to L. A. and the search for her mother. Maybe Melody was in denial, but I thought she was way too naive. I kept thinking uh, Mel? Your ma ditched you. Even if she does want you back, she doesn't deserve you. I think it was readable, but V. C. Andrews would not have been impressed.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best book in the Logan Series, March 31, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Unfinished Symphony (Mass Market Paperback)

This was a great book. It really wraps up the story etc. The only problem was the ending was left really wide open. I have Music In The Night too, and when I noticed that it was about Laura and not Melody, I was dissapointed. Not that I mind. It's just that if they had continued on the Logan Series with what happens with Cary and May and Melody, or with one of Melody's kids, that would have been really neat. That's what I really liked about the Landry Series. This was a great book otherwise and if I were to grade it I'd give it an A++++ haha :)

I suggest this book to anybody whom doesn't mind wide open endings!
