The Umbrella Academy by Gerard Way
One of my favorite musicians wrote a comic, and of course I had to read it. I own the entire Umbrella Academy series. Think of Village of the Damned, only some of the kids become superheroes.

This Song Will Save Your Life by Leila Sales
I don’t read YA fiction very often, but this one caught my eye and I wasn’t able to put it down! Teenagers and music and night life! That’s my jam!

Shout, Sister, Shout! The Untold Story of Rock-And-Roll Trailblazer Sister Rosetta Tharpe by Gayle Wald
I discovered this book by accident, and I’m so glad I did. I wish I had known about Sister Rosetta Tharpe when I was growing up, or even when I first began to play the guitar. She has become an inspiration to me: a black woman who played rock’ roll!

Rotten: No Irish, No Blacks, No Dogs by John Lydon
I’m a fan of punk rock, and the Sex Pistols, so I figured, John Lydon aka Johnny Rotten’s autobiography had to be pretty interesting. He did not disappoint. But this is more than just his story: it’s an oral history of the punk movement itself.

Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World that Can’t Stop Talking by Susan Cain
After reading this, I feel less bad about being an introvert. I’m actually caught in the middle of being an introvert and an extrovert. There’s nothing wrong with being quiet.

The Plague by Albert Camus
Okay, I’ll admit: this was never on my ‘must read’ list. I came across it while sanitizing books at the library. Due to the Pandemic, it caught my attention. I’m currently reading it. I’ve read Camus’s The Stranger, so I decided to give this book a try.

Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck
I read this book in a little over an hour, then saw the play on Broadway. Steinbeck became one of my favorite authors after I read The Grapes of Wrath.

Nighty Nightmare by James Howe
James Howe and his Bunnicula series are one of the reasons I became a writer. Animals that talk? Personification at it’s best! This is the fourth book in the series, but it is by far my favorite. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve read it.

M Train by Patti Smith
The Godmother of Punk Rock lives the life I’d love to live: she writes, she plays music, and she travels. Patti shares her love of life and her love of books in this 256 page journey. And you’re going to love her polaroid photos.

The Last Unicorn by Peter S. Beagle
I fell in love with the film adaptation of this book when I was about six or seven. I didn’t read the book until I was an adult. There are only a few differences between the two, but it’s one of my favorite fantasy books.
