Love and Biology: The Soundtrack From the get-go as I wrote this book, songs helped to tell the story. From the prologue, where Mira and her dad dance to "Blame it on the Bossa Nova," to the very end where a Dido song sums up the state of Mira's feelings for Parker, there is music playing in the background, or sometimes in the foreground, and Patsy Cline the singing dog is howling along. I hope you enjoy the tunes!  
Listen to the Music from Riding with the Queen Music is such an important component of this book, and while I was writing it I had great fun listening to old Bessie Smith, Robert Johnson, and Billie Holiday songs, as well as more contemporary blues artists I just love, like Susan Tedeschi, Jonny Lang, and Kenny Wayne Shepherd. Big Gal Sal was a prolific songwriter, of course, and with a little help from my friends Matt Gani, Mark Pray, and David Mossholder, I wrote and recorded what I imagined she would have written. See the corresponding page number to the book by each title! Bonus track: When Tallie finally gets her songwriting mojo back, she writes this ballad, "Almost Daylight." I only wish I could sing as well as she does, but here's my rendition. NOTE: Songs may take 30 to 60 seconds to load, depending on your system.
