BOOK CLUB: Record Collecting for Girls

We were lucky enough to get our hands on an advance copy of Courtney E. Smith's Record Collecting for Girls, and we've been eagerly anticipating the day we could share this joy with the world. In the words of the very wise publishers of this book "Finally here is a voice that speaks to women – because girls get their hearts broken and make mix tapes about it, too."

Courtney is a veritable music nerd, in the best possible sense of the word. Drawing upon her years of experience at MTV and in the radio industry, Courtney explores what music can tell women about themselves, their relationships and life itself. She discusses topics ranging from guilty pleasure songs to the evolution of girl bands, weaving in her own personal stories and always speaking with humor and wit.
