Songs from the Heart(land)

November 28th, 2009 by Nancy

I was perusing Lauren Brooke’s Heartland series the other day, and I couldn’t help but notice that a lot of her book titles are very close to or exactly the same as song titles! I wonder if it’s a coincidence… or maybe the series is a secret shout-out to her favorite playlist!

Here are some of her books:

Angst + Horses = Heartland

Book & Song Title	Artist
Coming Home	The 88
After the Storm	Norman Brown
Breaking Free	Troy (from HSM3!)
Taking Chances	Celine Dion / Glee Cast
Come What May	From Moulin Rouge Soundtrack
One Day You’ll Know	Mandy Moore & Jonathon Foreman
Out of the Darkness	Graham Nash
Thicker than Water	Jack Johnson
Every New Day	Five Iron Frenzy
Tomorrow’s Promise	Ok, I couldn’t find a music match on this one.
True Enough	Girlyman
Sooner or Later	Michael Tolcher
Darkest Hour	Ricky Skaggs
Everything Changes	Staind
Love is a Gift	Olivia Newton-John
Holding Fast	Closest: “Keep Holding On” by Avril Lavigne
Season of Hope	Closest: “Seasons of Love” from the Rent Soundtrack
New Beginnings	Gerald Albright
From This Day On	Cam
Always There	UB40

What song title might you borrow for your first novel?

If i were to write a new novel i would use the song title “Whataya Want from me” by Adam Lambert. I am planning on writing about children living up to parent’s expectations. If you are a child and you find yourself asking “well, whataya want from me” you can relate to my ideas.

That’s a fantastic idea, Mandi! I hope I see a book with that title in the future…
