Love Is a Mix Tape by Rob Sheffield
3.0
It feels a little strange to rate a memoir. It is events in someone's life after all. I wanted to love this book. I went so far as to go to Spotify and see if there was a playlist based on the book and yes there are a couple. And I may be listeningy way through it.
I grew up in the age of the mix tape and then graduated to burning CDs. Maybe it's his writing style but I found that the book didn't hold my attention. This is a book I should have finished in a couple of days. Yet I kept putting it down to do something else. I even started another book. I was completely turned off by him at the end when he mentioned giving his wife's dog away. I don't trust you if you don't like dogs.
I felt more emotion about finally finishing the book then I did about the story itself.
