Review of "The Invisible Library"

Ordinarily I don't care for fantasy, but it has come a long way in the last few years. Case in point: "The Invisible Library," by Genevieve Cogman. She's got a whole series of these now, but this is the first one, and it's really good. Densely plotted, intriguing, and all about books.

Review: How Music Works, by David Byrne

David Byrne has written an unusual and interesting book not on music per se, but on the cultural forces that shape what kind of music can be written and performed in specific environments - from intimate salons to gigantic arenas, from live concerts to recorded forms in multiple technological formats, from one person listening to a CD to thousands participating together. He covers a lot of ground, and shows how each form impacts the others.

Highly recommended. 

I received a copy of this book in return for a review.
