How to Fix a Broken Record: Thoughts on Vinyl Records, Awkward Relationships, and Learning to Be Myself by Amena Brown

2.0

This book was not quite what I thought it would be. Here’s a hint for you: the subtitle says “Thoughts on ...” and that’s what this book is. Every chapter is a short essay involving memories of the author’s past, and every couple of chapters are a section, such as her growing up, dating, marriage, adulting, etc. Really it’s just her stories from her life and some things she has learned along the way, with some occasional, briefly discussed, faith-based truth.
I honestly don’t know what I would say if you asked me what I was expecting, but it just felt lacking. So, how to fix a broken record? For this one I’m not going to bother because it’s just not my taste in music.
