Never ask a question unless you’re sure you want the truth.

I’ve been listening to my father sing for my whole life. I carry him in my pocket on my mp3 player. It’s just that we’ve never met face to face.

My mother would never tell me how I came to be, or why my rock star father and I have never met. I thought it was her only secret. I was wrong.

When she dies, he finally appears. Suddenly I have a first class ticket into my father’s exclusive world. A world I don’t want any part of – not at this cost.
Only three things keep me going: my a cappella singing group, a swoony blue-eyed boy named Jake, and the burning questions in my soul. There’s a secret shame that comes from being an unwanted child. It drags me down, and puts distance between me and the boy I love.

My father is the only one alive who knows my history. I need the truth, even if it scares me.

I didn’t know what to expect from this book but I didn’t think that it would have me crying and laughing all at once.

The Accidentals is a tale of loss, love, friendship and strength. Loving someone from afar to realize that things aren’t what they appear. People grow and change. Some for the worse while others for the better. It’s tragic and moving.

I really loved this book! I could easily see Jake staring at the stars. Rachel fan girling over someone who was absent. Aurora with her accent. It was so easy to imagine them in their elements. Claiborne Academy as the background. I really didn’t want it to end.

The only reason I couldn’t give it 5 Stars is because it felt rushed and the ending wasn’t satisfying. Other than that it’s a really great book and I hope there will be second.
