Soundtrack for Brighter than the Sun

• “A Girl in Trouble (Is a Temporary Thing)” by Romeo Void

  You gotta love Ellie for solving her own problems!

• “Friday I’m in Love” by The Cure

  I read somewhere that The Cure recorded this song because everyone was accusing them of being dark and gloomy all the time. I kind of think of Brighter than the Sun as my fun book, so it makes sense to pair it with a fun song.

• “Here Comes the Sun” by the Beatles

  An obvious choice, I know, but I can’t resist.

• “Whenever You’re on My Mind” by Marshall Crenshaw

  There is something utterly irresistible about this song. It’s catchy, and it’s fun, and it’s so romantic!
