Music and Books - a Feature and Follow fail



Feature and Follow is a fun, weekly event to find new book blogs to read. For complete details and to link up, visit either of the hosts.

This is a weekly blog meme hosted by Parajunkee's View and Alison Can Read.

or friend me on Goodreads.  

Q:  Is there a song that reminds you of a book? Or vice versa? What is the song & the book?


I am always impressed when a blogger posts a playlist for a particular book because I don't have that skill. Not only do I not listen to music that often but I also don't really think of potential match ups between books and music. How about you?

    I listen to music all day long and I read consistently but I still don't even associate the two together, so you're not the only one! :)

      Was glad to learn that I am not the only one. Seems so many bloggers make playlists.

    Following via twitter! I love music and books but it's hard to find the perfect book that fits the song and vice versa.

      I agree, it is hard! I enjoy other blogger's playlist though. I'm just not clever enough to come up with matches myself.

      Epic Reads does this pretty often. I don't pay much attention but I will start to. You might like theirs!

      Thanks for the follow...following back ;-)

    I actually really like the playlists Epic Reads, Story Crush, and them put up. I find some really great music that way, and then I'll read the book it goes too and think, 'yeah that really does fit well!' Coming up with my own playlists for books is a bit harder though.

    Thanks for stopping by my FF Dana!

      I just can't do it...I almost never listen to music when I'm reading. Will have to pay better attention to the playlists at Epic Reads though. Love them!

    I'm glad to see I'm not the only one who lacks this skill! It seems like such an impossible task! Thanks for stopping by my blog, and of course old follower via BlogLovin ;)

      Me too. I just don't ever think like that I guess. ;-) It is fun to read other's playlists though.

    I don't listen to music while reading, and never associate songs with books unless songs/bands are mentioned within a book, then I will end up associating that with the book.

    This is unrelated, but I love Essie nail polish, too! LOL

      Glad I am not the only one. Just can't read with noise. I can tune things out if I have to but I'd rather have silence.

      Essie rocks! Wish I had every color they made!

      Thanks for the follow...off to check out your blog as well. ;-)
