Love Is a Mix Tape: Life and Loss, One Song at a Time
by Rob Sheffield

I LOVE mix tapes and used to enjoy making a perfect mix, which is why this book caught my eye. One song I don't remember seeing on Sheffield's mixed tapes is "Some Guys Have All The Luck," by Rod Stewart. Seems a fitting song for someone who found the love of his life only to lose her a short time later.

I went in knowing that Sheffield had lost his wife, Renee, early on and even though you know, you are still extremely sad about it when it happens. Music comforts, music excites, music enrages, and you see that happening within the pages of this book. I recommend it.
