Sara Bareilles divides Sounds Like Me: My Life (So Far) in Song into eight essays, each named after one of her songs. My first reread of 2021, Sounds Like Me was just as glorious as the first time I read it… maybe even more so. I also read along with the book’s fall 2019 rerelease in paperback, which includes some bonus content. This time, though, I decided to listen to Sara herself narrate it in the audiobook version. Because of that, I’ve been wanting to reread her book. In the more than five years since then, my love for Sara and her music has actually grown. I then proceeded to read the entire book in one sitting - something I never do it usually takes me at least a few days! Needless to say, I loved it. The book came out in October 2015, and, like the obsessive fan I am, I bought it that same day. After following her for nearly a decade, I was thrilled when she announced her first book, a collection of eight essays called Sounds Like Me: My Life (So Far) in Song. I’ve been a huge fan of Sara Bareilles since “Love Song” came out back in 2007.
