Are we discussing music itself or books about music?

I missed your comment Tui but anything music is okay to discuss here.

What kind of music do you like Sharlene?

Everything, but mainly Pop music.

For you Aucklanders, the Library offer a free online service called Freegal where you can download 3 songs per week.

I've only been in NZ for a year and a half, but two of my fave albums ever are by Kiwi bands
- The Feelers 'Hope Nature Forgives' - the whole sound of it is just full of New Zealand to me.
- I Am Giant 'The Horrifying Truth' (mostly Kiwis, though they're London based) - their first album, released last year, is such a rich mix. It's beautifully put together.
(I'll shut up now!)

Well The Feelers are well known & have some great songs but I haven't heard of the second group you mentioned. I wonder if anyone else in NZ has heard of them?
I like Brooke Fraser but she has taken off overseas touring & NZ hasn't seen much of her lately

the 3rd installment of the Hush, Hush series had a playlist at the end with music that matched the book, like a Movie Soundtrack. I instantly added a playlist on Spotify to listen to the music.

Has anyone come across this before?

Hey you...A few of the books that I have read either have a playlist attached or you can find the playlist on the authors blog/website. There is a playlist for each of the FSOG books on EL James website...

Have you come across Booktrak which adds music and sound effects to ebooks. They've a great library of books. Mine soon I hope.

But it does enhance the stories. I write with music and find it invaluable.
