This was a gift, given to me by a family member. I really enjoyed this book and Mitch Albom's storytelling. I read this for book_drunkard's Resolution Challenge. I am now going to share it with some friends.

Thanks Josie and imawinn2 for this novel; I really appreciate the gift. I always enjoy Albom's books, and I am sure I will love this one, too. Can't wait to read it. Thanks, too, for the card. Wishing you and yours the happiest of holidays!

Thanks again for the book, JosieRivers and imawinn2. To imawinn2 for registering the book, sharing it, and sending it to JosieRivers, who was generous to share it be sending it to me. Sorry it has taken me so long to read it, but am so glad I did.

As might be expected from a novel from Mitch Albom, there were both unexpected moments as well as tears shed especially at the end.

This is the story of Frankie Presto, an extraordinary guitarist/musician, who lives a life of love and music in a Forrest Gump-like fashion. The tale is narrated by the talent named Music, who tells of the exploits of Frankie in the musical world as well as tells of Frankie's and Aurora's love.

Using musical terms, he describes Frankie's life and love through the years until he dies.

As for the magic strings, that's a mystery only to be revealed through reading.
