Love is a Mix Tape by Rob Sheffield

4.0

---

Rob Sheffield is just a couple of years older than me, so the music that he writes about so lovingly is often the stuff that was the soundtrack of my life as well. Sheffield shares his heart in a raw and honest way, interwoven with the music that was important to him and his wife Renee. It's unlike anything I've read before. It made me laugh and it made me reminisce, but it also made me ponder the uncertainty of life and how when life takes certain turns, sometimes good things get dragged down with the bad. As Sheffield writes:

Sometimes great tunes happen to bad times, and when the bad time is over, not all the tunes get to move on with you.
