Playlist for the Dead
Playlist for the Dead | Michelle Falkoff
Part mystery, part love story, and part coming-of-age tale in the vein of The Perks of Being a Wallflower and The Spectacular Now.There was a party. There was a fight. The next morning, Sam's best friend, Hayden, was dead. And all he left Sam was a playlist of songs and a suicide note: For Samlisten and you'll understand. To figure out what happened, Sam has to rely on the playlist and his own memory. But the more he listens, the more he realizes that his memory isn't as reliable as he thought. And it might only be by taking out his earbuds and opening his eyes to the people around him that he'll finally be able to piece together his best friend's story. And maybe have a chance to change his own.Playlist for the Dead is an honest and gut-wrenching first novel about loss, rage, what it feels like to outgrow a friendship that's always defined youand the struggle to redefine yourself. But above all, it's about finding hope when hope seems like the hardest thing to find.

#EasterOMC #11 Favorite Play List. I don't have one. If I listen to music, it's off the radio only when I drive. I need total silence when I read. @Clwojick @LadyKatrina

I‘m not sure what kept me reading. Interesting concept, and interesting enough characters, though they could use more development. It wasn‘t terrible, but it does have a few things to improve.

The first four books are YA novels that are on my TBR. I have especially wanted to read Playlist for the Dead 🙄

This for me was very middle ground territory. Feel like I should've loved it because it's so music orientated, but I just felt zero emotional connection to these characters. They just weren't developed or exciting enough. Really wouldn't waste your time with this, there's much better YA fiction out there to sink your teeth into

Just started reading this one! I'm only a couple of pages into it, so I can't really say anyhing about it yet, but I really wanted to read this when it first came out so I hope it doesn't disappoint me. :)

For me the music choices were good, absolutely loved playing them while reading the book. It gives it more meaning and added feels. Recommending this for those who likes to read something light, but still has depth.

The premise is interesting: teenage boy commits suicide, leaving a playlist to tell his best friend what happened. I'm a sucker for a playlist, and believe them to be magic, so I bit.

The problem is that the author tries to cram too many YA tropes into one book (One-dimensional Football Playing Bullies, Cold Rich Controlling Parents, and a Manic Pixie Dream Girl) which leaves no room for real characters and prevents any real "feels."

The twists in this book were predictable, and the characters a little one note. But somehow it was still hard to put down.

Liked the idea of the "playlist" but it got disconnected halfway through the book. Loved the song choices though.
