Vinyl Princess by Yvonne PrinzHighly Recomended Especially for Music Lovers!
16 year old Allie works in a record store in Berkeley California which is a dream job for her because she is a self proclaimed music geek and vinyl princess. She is totally obsessed with vinyl LP records as shown by her personal collection, her blog, and her zine.
She spends plenty of time hanging out at the bohemian eateries and coffee houses populating downtown San Francisco with her best friend and vintage fashion store employee Kit, and keeping an eye on her intellectual mother as she reenters the dating scene.
A string of robberies in the neighborhood ends up having a notable impact on her lovelife, the mysterious “M” keeps her up at night and is it possible to meet your soul mate at a flea market?
I really enjoyed this book. Prinz makes all of the characters so entertaining and the descriptions of the neighborhood businesses especially the restaurants are so vivid that they almost become supporting characters as well! I do enjoy my ipod, but I’m old enough to remember when vinyl was king and I’ll be interested to see how many other teens will be drawn to Allie’s preaching!
