A review by alperezq
31 Songs by Nick Hornby

3.0

Better than it has any right to be. Even if you don't read the book I recommend listening to the playlist https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DlTwJYVXOk0&list=PLgSUAPkvG4QSrRqygcMYhhiieNSXckcLk , they are mostly really good songs. Hornby highlights how these songs have played a role in his life and in doing so he manages to make them feel as personal for the reader as they are for the author. He's also a great music critic without being too pretentious and recognizing the generational and cultural barriers at play when appreciating music.
