There are moments of high melodrama making this dual novel a fascinating & earnest work reflecting that of the characters & youths whose obsession with ‘music‘ in the abstract is maddening

For all that, the story never really reaches the crescendo it strives for

In "Destroy All Monsters: The Last Rock Novel", Jackson discusses mass shootings in concert venues and what they might say about our state of affairs, and he does it in a narrative which feels like an explosion that produces fragments over fragments- good idea, but the execution is lacking. (No, my dog does not really drink canned beer, no worries! :-)) #music #arc #netgalley #dogsoflitsy #dogs
