Lyrics of the Heart was short yet emotional, I was captured by Kristi's sorrow over her father's condition at the beginning of the book and was continually drawn to her depression through her poetries. Confused, she wanted to hate him for being able to smile, but could Mark be the one who make her smile again? Crushed and depressed, she began writing poetries to express her feelings, only to encounter an optimistic young man who lost his arm yet still remained vibrant and carefree. Kristi's once perfect life was shattered when an unfortunate accident caused her father to lay motionless in coma, inching away from her day by day, becoming a stranger she do not know. This short novella tells the story of a young girl who has to face the decision of letting her father go. Losing someone is hard, facing the decisions of letting go is harder than actually losing someone.
