Play my book #4 Shift by Jeri Smith-Ready

 Play my book is a blog segment created by Nox-Invictus.
This feature is for book and music lovers. It’s about posting a song that you can relate to a book, a song from an author’s playlist, or one mentioned in the book you’re reading. So you can have the perfect “soundtrack” of that book.

This week, since I don’t do much re-reading, I decided I wanted to re-read Shift, my favorite book from the Shade trilogy by Jeri Smith-Ready.
This book always made me cry because Logan became my favorite dead character, but more than that, it was because of that book that I started loving the band Snow Patrol.
When I read Shift for the first time and saw that Logan sang the song “Run” I practically ran to my computer and looked for this song.
I loved it, there’s not much to say about it.
So, here you are. My first “Play my book” is Run by Snow Patrol, featured in Shift by Jeri Smith-Ready.

The book mention.

“Anyway, this is by a band that used to be

our favorite, Snow Patrol.”

Josh strummed a series of soft chords,

joined soon by Corey tapping on the

drums. Heather played the melody on the

bass, which gave it an even more somber

tone than the original lead guitar version.

“Run” was a song about grasping for

happiness just out of reach, about endless,

temporary good-byes. A song only a ghost

should sing.

This time I want you to know this song exactly written for werewolves. Some time ago I read the book The lost saint by Bree Despain and I was really surprised cuz I liked it a lot, even though I didn't enjoyed The dark divine. 

At the same time, I met for the first time, the amazing song Howl by Florence and the Machine, and I can't help but think this book and this song belong together.

(Click here to watch the video in Youtube)

This is the fragment of The lyric where I think about this book.

Howl by Florence + The machine
Visit the band's website.

If you could only see the beast you've made of me
I held it in but now it seems you've set it running free
Screaming in the dark, I howl when we're apart
Drag my teeth across your chest to tast your beating heart

My fingers claw your skin, try to tempt my way in
You are the moon that makes the night for which I have to howl
My fingers claw your skin, try to tempt my way in
You are the moon that breaks the night for which I have to

Howl, howl
Howl, howl

Now there's no rolling back, I'm aching to attack
My blood is singing with your voice, I want to pour it out
The saints can't help me now, the ropes have been unbound
I hunt for you with bloodied feet across the hallowed ground

Like some child possessed, the beast howls in my veins
I want to find you and tear out all of your tenderness

Now, I show you the lyric.

Visit the band's website.

We were sitting with our backs against the world
Saying things that we thought but never heard
Who would have thought it would end up like this?
Where everything we talked about is gone
And the only chance we have of moving on

Is try to take it back
Before it all went wrong

Before the worst, before we mend
Before our hearts decide
It's time to love again
Before too late, before too long
Lets try to take it back
Before it all went wrong

There was a time, that we'd stay up all night
Best friends talking till the daylight
Took the joys alongside the pain
With not much to loose, but so much to gain

Visit the band on Facebook.

"Baby just say goodnight

I'll be gone tomorrow

Baby just close your eyes

I can't take the sorrow

Baby just walk away

You know i can't stay

There's no easy way to say goodbye

So baby just say goodnight

We're in a spell that never ends

The empty hourglass wore me thin

So let the phone do it's work

Your voice is heaven

But it hurts

Your words are memories

But they burn"
