In the spring of 2002, Ted and Lilith met and formed a family of friends centered around his band. These two twenty-somethings fell in love while navigating the early stages of stardom with The Walkers. Unfortunately, their pasts—and the interference of their parents—threaten to destroy the love and future Ted and Lilith have built together. Filled with themes of addiction, the idea that friends are the family one chooses, and the weight of parental pressure, For You and Music may break your heart.
I’m still in the emotional throes of this book, but WOW. If you want to be swept into 2002, wrapped up in a love story for the ages, and have your heart ripped out at the end, then you should get yourself this book right now.
It’s beautiful, it’s personal, it’s devastating. If you need me. I’ll be with my therapist.
