Post #9: Jimi and Me

Hello! This is my 9th post as you can see and this week I'm going to be posting about the book I'm reading called Jimi and Me by Jaime Adoff. As odd as it may sound, I love Jimi Hendrix. I wasn't born in the 60s or 70s when he was popular, but I did grow up around his music because my parents are big fans of his. So, this book did spark some interest. I have been extremely busy the past week, so I haven't gotten very much time to read, but the few pages that I did read were structured differently than your normal novel. This book is written like a song or a poem. I thought that only the first few pages were like that to introduce you to the story line and things of that nature, but after flipping through, I realized that all the pages are written this way. Veering away from the way the book is written and structured, it is about a 13 year old boy, which has not been named yet, whose father passed away so his family is moving out of their old house into a new one. Through all of this, the boy finds an escape in music, particularly that of the talented guitar player, Jimi Hendrix. I think that I am really going to enjoy this book once I get the time to actually read a good amount of it. If you would like to read a more in depth summary of Jimi and Me or purchase it, you can click the link below, Other than that, I hope you have a great week, and if you have read this book, please comment below and let me know how you liked it. Bye Bye! :)
