Take a Bow Elizabeth Eulberg 9780545334747 Books

Elizabeth Eulberg has a talent for writing books that connect me with her characters, engage me with her story telling and leave me wanting more when the story is done. With Take A Bow she does all that and a little more. I loved getting to meet Carter, Emme, Ethan and Sophie. I was completely blown away at Elizabeth's talent for creating and writing four distinct voices whom I never had to ask myself who was talking through out the course of reading the book. Elizabeth made it so easy to not only get to know each character, she created an incredibly engaging story for me to love.

Even though I don't know what it's like to be a child and teen actor like Carter does, I'm not in a band like Emme and Ethan are and I have no desire to be an aspiring singer and actress like Sophie does, Elizabeth made it easy for me to relate to and identify with each of her characters. Sure they go to the prestigious CPA performing arts school for the gifted, but they are just like every other teen. This is their senior year and like many seniors they're trying to figure out what they want out of life, as well as finding their place in the world. Some of them deal with heartbreak, betrayal, rejection, and others fall in love, learn to say no, find their own and take hold of their destiny. What I loved about these characters is how easy it was for me to connect with and identify with them. I fell in love with them (well most of them), enjoyed getting to know them and admired them for how much they changed/grew as the story progressed.

I am extremely picky when it comes to reading books with multiple points of views, but I loved the way Elizabeth wrote Take A Bow. She not only kept the story progressing with each of the four character's points of views, but also allowed me to get to know them on an individual level, as well as see how all four of them interact together. While Sophie angered me to know end, Emme, Ethan and Carter made it so easy for me to love them. The reason being is that they're characters who are flawed, they're real, realistically portrayed and they all inadvertently do things to help each other out. These three characters are the ones I felt grew the most, and they all do so in extremely different ways. I didn't care much for Sophie and how shallow she was through out the entire storyline, but I did appreciate what her character added to the story. Emme was the one that grew the most for me. Carter had me rooting for him from the beginning and Ethan is the one I left with a stupid grin on my face.

Elizabeth Eulberg does such a beautiful job at creating characters I fall in love with, root for and want to go hang out with. With Elizabeth's book I always know I'll feel completely satisfied with the story, will love with her writing, her story telling and her characters. Without fail her books always give that little pick me I needed and leaving me grinning when I'm done with them. If you're looking for a book that will whisk you away from reality for a bit, give you a richly written dialogue between four distinct well written characters and leave you feeling all hopeful and completely after reading it, than I highly recommend picking up Take A Bow.

Take a Bow Elizabeth Eulberg 9780545334747 Books Reviews

Take a Bow by Elizabeth Eulburg was a fun and fast read. I thought the plot was interesting. Four students attend a very prestigious and challenging music school to follow their dreams. I enjoyed seeing through those four pairs of eyes about how it's like to attend a school for it's music and other programs ( drama, art, etc.)

You can really learn something from these four characters

Carter a guy who's been acting since he was a baby but is confused as to who the real Carter is.

Sophie a girl who wants to become a mega super star no matter what it takes, even using and abusing her best friend, Emme.

Ethan a guy who really likes music but messes up a lot in his relationships with his girlfriend and friends. And who has feelings for Emme but doesn't know what to do about it.

Emme a girl who writes amazing songs but doesn't have the courage to sing them herself so she lets her best friend Sophie sing them.

So like I said, Take a Bow was a fun and fast read. I did enjoy it but I found myself annoyed more than a few times.

What I found annoying was Emme. She's the sweet and shy girl who everyone likes but I found her kinda annoying. Not only is her personality sweet and shy it's also quite dense. She doesn't really see how her "best friend" Sophie really uses and abuses her. Although she claims to Carter she is not unaware that Sophie only comes to her when she needs/wants something. Then when she finds out who the real Sophie is she claims to herself she knew that Sophie changed but made excuses for her. I didn't really believe that. It took almost until the end of the book for Emme to finally realize Sophie isn't her best friend anymore just a jealous girl.

Not only is Emme dense in one relationship but in two. She doesn't realize until later that Ethan is her real best friend and then later realizes he's in love with her.

Am I the only one who saw that Emme also kinda used and abuses Ethan? She doesn't want to be front stage so she and the guys in their band make Ethan front man but she's harsh to him when he messes up in the band. Still I do admit she was right in doing the Mount Emme thing since Ethan did deserve a tongue lashing but she does insult too. She also helps Sophie cheat by playing Ethan's song so Sophie has an edge. I was mad that Ethan didn't yell at her for that.

I do like Emme as a character but I found that she was to dense for me to really like her. I think she was also too high and mighty especially concerning Ethan.

I give this book three stars.
