Our connections to books can be deeply personal. We cling to the characters that feel like friends, or reflect pieces of ourselves.

But how do you translate your reading experience and the connections you feel with a book into music?

Soundside takes a moment to re-air an story from last month on the memoir "Crying at H-Mart".

In January a group of local Seattle musicians turned Michelle Zauner's bestselling memoir Crying in H Mart into original music for the Bushwick Book Club Seattle, a non-profit dedicated to increasing awareness in literature and song writing. They performed their songs at Town Hall Seattle.
