Fantastic! I listened to the audiobook version, which is read by Sarah herself (as well as a few other people reading their contributions to the book, including Ben Fold reading his forewords). I love when author's narrate their own audiobooks, but with this book it feels essential to understanding Sarah's work and the often intangible magic of music.

This book is a collection of essays, each tied to one of Sarah's songs. She sings each song, a cappella, before each essay. That is such a treat, but it also sets the emotional tone for each essay.

Sarah makes fun of herself a lot, in the book, especially talks about not feeling like she's really skilled as a writer. Which is just so untrue. This book demonstrates, what fans of her music already know, she is a wonderful storyteller. What she shares in these stories, much like her music, is funny, touching, and thoughtful.

I am so glad I found this audiobook at my library. It is one of my favorite reads of this year and possibly of all time. I highly recommend it.

Make sure you listen all the way to the end. They included outtakes from recording. Where Sarah makes fun of her work writing, swears A LOT, and does a pretty good impression of Yoda.
