it was amazing

I'm a huge fan of David Mitchell (I couldn't fit all the books into the picture) and this novel was highly anticipated, *and* I love novels with a music theme. This novel is about a band in 1960s UK, and the chapters move between their perspectives as new songs are written and recorded (the sections of the book are grouped by sides.) There are a lot of connections to his other works, because everything is all part of one übernovel - those parts were very fun to discover but I won't spoil them here. My only sadness is that it is over....

Nat K I'm reading this now and loving the 60s vibe. Short'n'sweet & fab review.

Yeah there’s a lot of fun surprises I didn’t want to give away.


Kristine Reading book now and really like it. Thanks for your review.


Klaas Roggeman I agree wholeheartedly. Maybe not his best per sé, but it was such a fun read.


Dawn I agree Jenny. I’ve just finished and feel quite bereft. Lot of treats for Mitchell fans, who will pick up on all those connections.
