 I wish I could have given younger Brittany this book because she would have eaten it UP! If you're looking for a book full of magical music, a precious protagonist who you desperately want to hug and can't help but root for, and a gorgeous gorgeous cover, pick up Cat's book. The audiobook is delightful, but I wish I had read a physical copy so I could have spent forever within the world, soaking in all the beautiful and lyrical (pun intended) writing. I discovered this book randomly from one of the author's TikToks and I'm so stinking glad I did.

PS If you're not following her on Instagram, you are missing out on all the lovely artwork, silliness, writing life, and wholesomeness of Catherine Bakewell! She is as delightful and fierce as her protagonist.
