Music in Writing
Are there other books you've read that included music or musicians as a main focus that you really liked?
If not, why do you think this isn't a prominent topic in writing?

WVMP Radio series, by Jeri Smith-Ready. In the mythology, vampires get "stuck" in whatever era they "died" in, so the station only plays 90's.
To this day it is one of the most unique mythologies I've found.
What is grief, if not love persevering?
Grief is just love with no place to go.

Cool! I liked that. It does sound unique. I added it to my list.Gravy wrote:There's an urban fantasy, vampire series that relies heavily on 90's music.

I agree that nowadays, authors prefer to write about what is in or where they will get profit. It is disheartening to think that authors sometimes sacrefice the aesthetic sense of writing.IsabelMay wrote:This concept is very unique and refreshing to see among so many books that get lost in the mass. I feel like writers are focusing on what's ''in'' rather than writing something that's completely different. The idea of mixing music and writing is amazing to me as I'm interested in both. I'd love to read more books like that.
