![A graphic of music-themed books with the covers cropped as squares to look like music albums in a playlist. The words "Uni High is listening to: Bookish Playlist" are along the top.](/uni/wp-content/uploads/sites/50/2020/05/Bookish-playlist-1.png)
Lately, I’ve taken to playing a song to get me up and ready for the day, maybe with a quick dance session to get my energy up! I’ve had “Sunday Best” by Surfaces stuck in head. The music video is super cheesy, but it was just the type of thing to put a smile on my face during these weird times.
So, for you music lovers out there or for anyone looking for a new book to read, I put together this “playlist” of books that are music-themed. Hope you find something to read and perhaps new music to listen to.
I made note of where you can find online copies through OverDrive and Hoopla via the Champaign Public Library and Urbana Free Library. If you need help finding books at your local library or with anything else, don’t hesitate to ask!
Please note: Books that are available as physical copies through the Uni High Library are noted with a call number in case you reference this list once we are able to return to campus or want to request for pickup by May 15th at midnight.
