Recensioner

I believe this is the first time that I’ve ever read a book after I’ve seen the movie. I was obsessed with High Fidelity the movie when I was younger and I must say the book was equally as good if not better. Very funny and entertaining, I love Hornby’s writing style.

Rambling and light. The odd humorous or striking reference, but not worth compiling these offcuts into a book. Breezed through a few chapters, but I won’t be reading on. Even resorting to the index to find the references to books or writers I cared about didn’t make it sing for me.

Rob es un chico que no es muy afortunado en el amor, que tiene una tienda de vinilos en el que es coleccionista total, siempre se encuentra en banca rota y que se pasa el día haciendo listas de casi todo.

Despite the promising setting and subject of this novel, I found little in it that encouraged reading the next page.
