#CoverStories

A #roll100 pick for February which I finished yesterday.

There are some interesting pieces in this story, but not enough to give it a pick. I enjoyed the music shop, the idea of Frank being able to choose the record his customer needs rather than what they asked for. Set mostly in the late 1980s, it never really felt like it outside of the commentary on vinyl records being replaced by cassettes and CDs. I liked Frank‘s friends as well. ⬇️

Really cute and uplifting!

I‘m about 60 pages into THE MUSIC SHOP and I‘m sad to say it feels like a book I could drift away from. Hopefully it‘ll click for me soon.

If it doesn‘t, at least it reminded me I should have more Aretha Franklin in my life. Via Hoopla, not on vinyl, but the world ain‘t perfect.

Started this this morning, and I'm loving it! It's giving The Little Paris Bookshop vibes but with music

I recycled a pic for today! I love music 🎶 but didn‘t love this book 🤷🏻‍♀️ did you read it? Did you love it? 🎶

I loved this story about Frank and his love for music, but only in vinyl form, and Ilse who befriends him and finds new meaning in her life.

This was a thoroughly enjoyable book. Quirky characters, sad stories, but ultimately a happy ending. Great musical description! That was the real draw of this book. It was easy to read and be in the story.

My evening reading stack!
I got my #lmpbc round 13book back in the mail a couple days ago. Thanks.

I didn‘t have another pic of this book and I have already packaged it to mail to @babyruth2510 for #LMPBC. Sorry it‘s a little late. So I thought I would post a pic of my cat instead. #CatsOfLitsy Anyway, the book was good, a soft pick for me. It had a lot of heart and was a quick read.

My Dad passed away last week. I spent the past week in California clearing out his place with my sister. Today I am grateful to be home eating breakfast in my jammies. I didn‘t get to this #LMPBC book as soon as planned but I‘m going to get it read and in the mail asap. Today seems like a good day to sit on the couch and read.

This took me a little bit to get into, but I did enjoy it. There is a Spotify playlist that goes along with it and I found it a nice touch to have that playing in the background as I read the book.

I love Rachel Joyce's whimsical and witty writing! The Music Shop is a great book for music and rom-com lovers. Frank owns a vinyl record shop and has a...magical?...ability to determine the music his customers need. Interspersed throughout the novel are memories from his childhood in which his mom teaches him about music. Frank is the only dimensional character. It's a feel-good, healing vibes book. 4.5 stars

#LovePrevails

Owner of a vinyl-only #music shop, Frank has a #magical ability to intuit just the right record for each customer, except for the mysterious Ilse Brauchmann. Frank recalls his quirky mother's lessons as he tries to help Ilse and hang on to his failing business amid his changing neighborhood and his own emotional struggles. Loved this ultimately uplifting tale of the healing power of music. @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @TheKidUpstairs #InspiredNewYear

I loved this. Heart-warming, quirky, it speaks to the power of kindness, and community. Well-written, and interesting, this was a feast and I loved every page. 5/5

This book made me remember why I love The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry. Joyce is such a great writer. I love when a character‘s compassion is their superpower. This was such a feel-good story, and yet the writing is so powerful.

One that‘s been on my TBR pile for far too long

#QuotsyAug20 Day 12: #Vinyl

Slight play on the #SongofLove theme with a love story centred around a music shop. Very cheesy ending but secretly loved it!
#FlyHighJuly

What a quirky, fun, and fulfilling story. It doesn‘t quite go in the direction you‘d think or really take the route yours expect, but gets you to where you need to go, much like our hero Frank. I quite enjoyed it more than I expected. With all these characters I could definitely see this turned into a movie with a fantastic sound track!
