Emotional Rescue: Essays on Love, Loss, and Life--With a Soundtrack by Ben Greenman

4.0

This was a quick read, but I enjoyed it. Mostly because he applies the songs he discusses to events and conversations he has in his life the same way I do. I saw that a lot of the negative reviews were about the songs being obscure or ones readers had never heard of, but the essays are about life, not about the songs. So I don't think the fact I hadn't heard most of these songs had a negative effect on my reading experience. If you listen to music because the lyrics speak to you and help you understand that others are experiencing the same life events that you are, I think you'll enjoy this book.
