A Very Special Stop Blog Tour Event

Today I'm at Frank Portman's blog, aka Dr. Frank's What's-it. Frank wrote the excellent hit novel King Dork, and he is also the lead singer of The Mr. T Experience, the best band ever. I've been a huge fan of mtx since I was in high school. They are probably the only banjoless band I've ever really loved.

Dr. Frank is famous for introducing his songs by saying, "This is a song about a girl," and An Abundance of Katherines will hopefully one day be famous for being a book about girls, so it's a natural fit.

So for this very exciting blog tour stop, I created a playlist called "The MTX Does An Abundance of Katherines: A Short (But Well-Annotated) Playlist." Most exciting of all, Frank has made each song on the playlist a downloadable mp3, which means you can actually create the playlist, and then listen to the world's greatest breakup songs while reading Katherines. Rock on!

Oh... I thought you were at Not Your Mother's Bookclub?

I was going to post it as soon as I got to work.

Frank is a usurper!

Please advise.

Best blog tour stop ever. There are few things in this world I love more than free music, especially when I can acquire it legally.

I finished Katherines last night and gave it a mention in my own blog this morning (I wouldn't go so far as to say "review"), so my wide readership of approximately fourteen people can make a mental note to read it and then forget.
