**Spoiler Free Duet Review**

“Love can be a fulfilling, enchanting thing, but it can be a thief, too. It can drain you, suck you dry, strip you bare. I decided that I would never give it a taste. It wasn’t worth it.”

The theme of this duet is loss, grief, friendship, and love. It’s a story of heartbreak, compassion, perseverance, and hope. Of overcoming everything in life which can break you and finding the light in the darkness. It’s quite the journey, a slow-building story of acceptance and healing, with tremendous angst but low on unnecessary drama. It’s actually quite an endearing and sweet story as well at times, breaking up the heaviness when needed. The Heartsong Duet is completely character driven which we loved; the depth of the characters and the emotional intricacies of the story is all-encompassing.

Memories are powerful entities that can make or break you, you can get lost and be drawn into the darkness of what you’ve lost or you can love what you had and hold the wonderful memories close in your heart. Sometimes the hardest thing is to live after a loss, but to live is to love and love should always win. Love can make your heart soar with hope, but love can also make you feel utterly hopeless.

TBB is TEN YEARS OLD TODAY! We can’t believe we started this journey 10 years ago today! Over those 10 years, we’ve published over 1500 reviews, pressed go on who knows how many posts on social media, we’ve travelled from the other side of the world to meet each other, and met hundreds of authors and readers on our journey. What a special time it’s been so far! 

TBB was, and always will be a blog about readers, for readers, from readers. We are readers first and foremost, evident in the number of books we still read and review. After all, that’s what book blogging is all about. Reading and reviewing books!
Our love of reading and discovering that next book love, is something we’ll never tire of. Sharing that love of our latest favourite read will always be close to our hearts. 
Thank you for sharing our journey.
Big hugs and kisses
J&G xoxo
