My Review - The Choir on hope street!

The Choir on hope street

5☆+  Review

I absolutely loved The Choir on Hope Street.
It was heart warming and so easy to read.
 It focuses on friendship, loyalty and commitment with a great sense of achievement and Pride.

I believe the biggest message Annie sends is to never give up on your hopes and dreams.

I loved how Annie touched on personal matters within the choir members particularly Natalie and Caroline.
The Breakdown of Natalie's marriage and the Estranged relationship Caroline had with her mother and her Dementia.
This book bought back many personal memories for me .


Natalie and Caroline are the two main characters.
They are both very very different women.
Natalie is a children's Author and has a son called Woody she seems very grounded & Caroline is head of the PTA has a daughter called Matilda and happily married. She also comes across to begin with as very self- obsessed.

Natalie and Caroline meet when Caroline knocks over Natalie by accident outside the school gates.
Unbeknown to Caroline, Natalie's husband Dan has just left her. So she drives her home, realising they both live on the same Street.

The two women soon meet again when Caroline asks Nat to join her meeting to save Hope Street Community Hall.
Natalie is reluctant to attend, but walking into that meeting is about to change her life for the better.

The community decide to form a Choir to help save the hall.

Guy offers to conduct the choir, but there is something mysterious about him. He is very closed and edgey.
Is he hiding something?

The Choir sign up for the National Choir competition and so their journey begins!

I don't want to spoil the book by delving into the story to deep.

Caroline for me was a character I didn't want to like.
She was self- obsessed and rude at times.
 She came across like she was using Natalie for her status.

However as the story progresses I can't help warming to Caroline.
The cracks start to form and you see she is vulnerable. She has an estranged relationship with her mother, which you become to see when she visits the dementia care home. It's so sad to see but I can understand why she feels this way.
There are secrets to be uncovered!

I really enjoyed seeing Natalie and Caroline's friendship blossom.
They really didn't want to like each other but they soon became each others crutch.

Annie's style of writing was engaging and she bought the characters to life.
I was able to relate to every character.

I also love that Annie has taken the time to add a playlist along with the book to make your reading more entertaining, you can find this on Spotify.

I highly recommend reading this book

The Choir on Hope Street isn't just about saving a hall, it's about the coming together of a community, it's about the personal journey each member has taken, it's about Family and Friendship, it's about having faith and strength even when you get knocked down.


Annie took me on a feel good emotional journey. There was humour, warmth, sadness, happiness, triumph, Love and strength.
