Rock Crush and Roll by Hunter Snow – Review by Mandy Ott

Rock Crush and Roll by Hunter Snow
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This is the first book I’ve read by Hunter Snow so I wasn’t quite sure what to expect. The synopsis sounded promising so I gave it a shot. Overall, Rock Crush and Roll was okay. There was a lot of reference to Canadian culture that I didn’t really get, but the music connections made for a fun and interesting read. The characters fell a little flat for me, lacking genuine personality, but Tyler’s close relationship with her family was so heartwarming. The book started off very slowly and finished almost too abruptly, like there was a word count the author didn’t want to exceed. It seemed like a lot of time was spent working through Tyler’s insecurities, only for most of them to end up being unfounded. Tyler and Cary’s relationship seemed rushed in places, yet stilted in others. Although this was not my favorite read, I would like to read more by Hunter Snow, as I feel like there is definite potential for an amazing book.
