This story grabbed me immediately and never let go. It is gorgeous in so many ways - in the dialogue, the descriptions of the feelings of characters, the portrayal of the importance of music in our lives, it is hard to even describe all of the ways this book affected me. I wanted so badly to go visit the shop and have Frank tell me which record I needed. I adored the way Frank would pull albums of entirely different genres and relate them to each other. What a wonderful talent. It made me crazy when he and Ilsa kept misunderstanding each other, and I felt the pain of each of their unrequited loves. I listened to the audiobook, which I recommend highly due to the skilled narration and the various lovely accents. I think this is a book I will give as a gift many times.
One of the reviewers on Amazon said "The combined being of this book, every page, every word, every character, every bit of it has stored itself inside my heart. It has also opened my ears to listening to music in the way Frank expresses it. This book can seriously change your life."
