Soundtrack Saturday

 If you are looking for the Spooktacular Blog Hop, it is the post before this one.  Just scroll down!

Welcome to this blog-meme from Erin over at Hardcover Lover.  The idea is to put a book you are reading to music, following the guidelines.  I will do my best on this new adventure.

I finished reading Just Killing Time by Julianne Holmes, review coming Monday.  Here is my attempt to find the music for the book. 

Song that I think goes well with the beginning of the book:

The heroine in this mystery is returning to the only home she knew after her grandfather dies.  Her grandfather ownes a clock shop and she has followed in his footsteps.  This song is about time and how she wishes the rift between them had been patched before he died.

Cher -- Turn Back Time

Song I think fits a character in chosen book:

Since the heroine Ruth Clagan not only fixes and designs fine clocks, she also wears jewelry she creates from steampunk elements with gears, this humorous song seemed fitting.

Reginald Pikedevant -- Just Glue Some Gears On It (And Call It Steampunk) 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TFCuE5rHbPA



Song that represents a relationship in this book:

Ruth is dealing with the news of her grandfather's death and her inheritance after a few years of estrangement.  This song seemed appropriate, since Ruth and many people in town miss him.

Justin Hayward -- Forever Autumn
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hsCdlX-5UjE



Include a song that fits the ending of the book:

The ending reveals a killer that was hiding a dark side.  This song gets that vibe pretty good.

This is my second try at this blog-meme from Erin over at Hardcover Lover.  The idea is to put a book you are reading to music, following the guidelines.  I will do my best on this new adventure.

I finished reading The Big Chili by Julia Buckley (click here for review) and here is my attempt to find the music for the book.  This was a tough one.


Song that I think goes well with the beginning of the book:

The murder in this mystery is from poison, so this song works (although it is about a relationship that isn't good for you -- still it is about poison.)  It could also apply to the main character Lilah's ex boyfriend as well.

Poison by Beyonce
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rNKR0uwuf4s



Song I think fits a character in chosen book:

Since Lilah is a great cook doing her undercover catering business, I thought this song would work for her :-)

Jimmy Buffet And Friends - Hey Good Lookin'

Song that represents a relationship in this book:

Lilah hates keeping the secret about having made the chili that was poisoned from the detective, because her ex-boyfriend lied to her.  This lie does blow up, as lies tend to do, so a song about lies seemed appropriate.

No More Lies by The Moody Blues
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KX5-9w1cx60



Include a song that fits the ending of the book:

The running idea of lies and secrets comes back in the end, because a killer doesn't want their secret out...duh.  This one is perfect for so many murder mysteries!

Secret by The Pierces

Soundtrack Saturday



I have been on vacation this week.  It was a last minute decision to go to the Grand Canyon, so I was unable to post this week.  But I am back and thought I would begin a blog-meme from Erin over at Hardcover Lover.  The idea is to put a book you are reading to music, following the guidelines.  I will do my best on this new adventure.

I am currently reading Daniel Silva's THE HEIST, the fourteenth in Daniel Silva's Gabriel Allon series. Gabriel is an art restorer and occasional spy/Mossad Assassin.  So here is what I have devised for a Soundtrack for the book thus far.


Song that I think goes well with the beginning of the book:  Another Way To Die by Jack White  
 


Song I think fits a character in chosen book:  Gabriel Allon's song is The Windmills of Your Mind by Dusty Springfield (not Nobody Does it Better-- he's more complicated.) 


Song that represents a relationship in this book:  For Your Eyes Only for Gabriel and Chiara's relationship

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fN1WBgS9u_E

Include a song that fits the ending of the book:  
O Fortuna (Piano/Cello Cover) by the PianoGuys



Let me know if you like this new feature...or if you have other songs that you think of for this book.
