Who Put This Song On? by Morgan Parker

4.0

I really liked listening to this book so much, and it's definitely one that made me wonder at various times if we lived the same life. I find myself grateful to Morgan Parker for fictionalizing her own experience for this because I really felt a mutual understanding and the honesty throughout. However, I do worry that those that might not have that or can't put themselves in that place might have a hard time liking the characters or the themes because there is a feeling of lack of structure and disconnect to "the way teenagers talk/behave". It just might not click for everyone and that's okay!

So much of my life experience with trauma, "token black", self discovery, depression, and so on has just made my existence often feel like it has no structure and disconnect though so I fit right in! For anyone out there that's not afraid to cast themselves in their own production to explore themselves even if it's uncomfortable sometimes could potentially find something healing in this book.
