nina86 's review for:
I really love you, Rob Sheffield.
I wish Rob was my brother or friend, I feel like I personally know him. He puts so much warmth and humor into his writing, really letting readers into his journey growing up in the 80s and sharing his experiences (with soundtrack). Each chapter opens up with a song title and artist and what year it came out, with the author taking us back to his story behind each song.
This memoir cannot live up to the amazing Love Is a Mix Tape, which is a love letter to his late wife. Talking to Girls About Duran Duran is more lighthearted, but there are definitely moments that made me sad ( note: when he talks about "Crying Game", if you have read Mix Tape then you know why). Rob's love for his sisters is really clear in this book, it is pretty much dedicated to them. My favorite parts are his memories with his sisters.
