Matty's Mixtape for Moving On is an epistolary novella about Matthew, a twenty-something independent bookshop owner who is coping (rather badly) with his recent breakup with long-time girlfriend Kate. Matt is quiet, reserved, and blessed with the completely opposite Jake as his best friend. When Jake forces Matt to give Kate a breakup mixtape accompanied with letters about each song as some sort of therapy, Matt is reluctant but eventually obliges. What Matt goes through with writing each letter is nothing like he expected. Each hand-picked song and each letter that Matt writes is deeply personal, revealing, and nostalgic. A contemporary book about discovering yourself through music, Matty's Mixtape for Moving On is both introspective and heartfelt.
