I've been enjoying this sweet romance since the first book. (You can check out my reviews of Maven - book 1 - and Nemesis - book 2 - on the blog by following the links.) Oh my, do these songs fit the characters in this book PERFECTLY. Once you read, you'll understand.
I'm thrilled to have S.A. Huchton back to the blog with her music play list for Nemesis. Please give a warm
welcome to S.A. Huchton!
Nemesis Play List
So, Lydia was unavailable for comment on this, and Daniel isn’t talking to anyone, but after I transcribing this book of the Endure series, I think I’ve assembled an appropriate list of songs for the story. I’m hoping they agree with my selections.
1. Somebody That I Used to Know - Gotye
Perhaps it’s cliché and overdone, but nothing speaks louder to the relationship between Nick and Lydia than this song. I think I could actually picture them singing this Glee style. LOL
2. Jar of Hearts - Christina Perri
If Lydia could sing, she’d be yelling this at Nick for sure.
3. The Reason - Hoobastank
Nick’s song. Regrets are a theme in this book, so I suppose this could also fit for Lydia as well.
4. Take It All - Adele
Oh, Daniel. My heart hurts for him just hearing this song.
5. I Won’t Give Up - Jason Mraz
To give everyone hope, I’m leaving you with this one as a lead in to book 3, Progeny. This one drops the end of November, so the wait isn’t too long!

Her first foray went on to become a double-nominee and finalist for the 2010 Parsec Awards. Since her debut, Starla's voice has appeared in other podcasts including The Dunesteef Audio Fiction Magazine, The Drabblecast, and Erotica a la Carte. She is also a voice talent for Darkfire Productions, and narrates several of their projects, including The Emperor's Edge series, This Path We Share, and others.
