This was a really heart warming read. I found all the characters considerably endearing and the reader really cares about the plight of their shops and their futures. I for one was heartbroken when we got to the final part and learned what has become of Frank.
A very solid and enjoyable read.

This is a cute book. The story itself is a little lacking. The thing I enjoyed most was learning and being exposed to all genres of music. Frank’s mother taught him so much, which in turn, taught me quite a lot. I updated and created new playlists because of this exact book. So thank you very much, Ms. Joyce!
This is a sweet, heartfelt, feel-good read. I loved this motley cast of characters centered around a failing record shop on a quiet, shabby British street in 1988. (Kit is the best! And the waitress at the cafe!) The Music Shop has a lot to say about the need for community. If you’re a music lover you will enjoy this. I haven’t felt this invested and entertained by a book in a while. Now I’m going to have to check out the rest of Joyce’s novels.

Sweet. Sweet. Sweet. I would shop at Frank's Records. Maybe I'll ask Brad to play something on vinyl for me soon.
