We know the universe is out to burn us, and it gets us all the way it got Renee, but we don't burn each other, not always. We don't live in a kind or generous world, yet we are kind and generous. Accepting all that kindness, though, made me feel stupid. If anything, it flattered my intelligence. It made me mad, but it didn't make me feel stupid. I had no trouble comprehending why the phone company wanted to screw me over they just wanted to steal some money, it was nothing personal. Kindness is a scarier force than cruelty, that's for sure.

Originally published in hardcover: New York : Crown, 2007 Here, Rob, now a writer for Rolling Stone, uses the songs on fifteen mix tapes to tell the story of his brief time with Renée And it was music that would help Rob through a sudden, unfathomable loss. Music brought them together and kept them together.

They had nothing in common except that they both loved music. It was also the 1990s when a shy music geek named Rob Sheffield met a hell-raising Appalachian punk-rock girl named Renée, who was way too cool for him but fell in love with him anyway.
