Thebook was interesting, and I may have learned useful information regarding religions i have not studied, but it is difficult to know, as the author was much more interested in talking about himself and his difficulties and great solutions, than he was in presenting facts. He sees himself as an Ortnhodox Jew, but is very willing to dismiss rules when they do not fit his needs. He presents himself as very open and likable and also severely damaged by his parents' divorce when he was a child.

I was fortunate to win this from LibraryThing. Thank you!

This book is a little gem, and a very quick read. Mr. Ari Goldman had me smiling throughout his story. As I was reading his story of music and perseverance, I found myself thinking that aging is not a sad and boring stage in life. He has proven, as have others, that opportunities in life as always there as long as we possess dreams and desires. A lovely, moving story stuffed into 287 pages.

I've played several musical instruments, but after leaving them, find it hard to get up to speed again - someday maybe I'll get there.
The book helped to put it into perspective. We learn much easier and faster when younger. Doesn't mean it can't be learned, but we need to be easier on ourselves and willing to put a LOT of work into it

I couldn't ever fully get into this book. I liked the idea of it, fully expected to enjoy it, and truly wanted to like it. It just felt really slow.
