Personally, I hate reading synopsis’ of books.
I wish I read the synopsis of this book.
It was a free audible pick of the month; so I took advantage and downloaded it. The cover was cute and colourful and I saw Casey Musgraves is one of the voice actors.
The first chapter I was smiling ear to ear at hearing the instruments. I’ve never read/listened to a musical book before.
A few chapters in and it kept disappointing me and becoming even more boring.
I held out for Casey Musgraves and wasn’t even impressed with her until I heard her song about wake and baking. Great song.
I don’t understand how this “book” made it onto audible or here as a book. I didn’t enjoy it as much as I wish I did. I liked the bad news bearers but near the end it lost its amusement. I wish there was more “meat” to the story. It’s all bread.

Is it a book? I don’t care it was very entertaining and well written. Looking forward to Energy Curfew when that time comes.

I feel like this was more of a radio show then an audiobook but I did find it highly entertaining so 4 stars. Not a full five because I don't really think this should be considered an audiobook. There isn't really a plot, just a bunch of people getting together to play music. Overall though, very entertaining.

While this is not an audio book in the traditional sense, it is still entirely enjoyable. Thr Punch Brothers welcome a variety of guests to their show and the conversation and music is phenomenal.

The perfect quirky listen for the never ending car ride. There are some really great talents on this!
