The #ChickLitMay celebrations continue! Today authors all over the world are sharing the songs that inspired their stories.
For All Over the Place, my number one song has to be Don’t Look Back Into the Sun, by The Libertines. It has the perfect vibe: edgy and melodic, jangly guitar, free and easy, and totally London-y. You might notice shades of a young Pete Doherty in the rock star Livi meets on her adventures. And of course she’s determined not to look back to that sunny place she left behind…
Apart from anything else, this song is just fantastically catchy—one of my all-time favourites. Enjoy! 🙂
All Over the Place is available at
AMAZON | iBOOKS | BARNES & NOBLE | KOBO
You can see the whole playlist for All Over the Place on its book page.

Thank you
I think Sweet Escape would make a good story because it sounds like a fun, crazy adventure.
Finding the perfect song to fit the book you’re reading or writing is the best. This one suits All Over the Place beautifully.
Never heard that song before. It’s cool. Thanks for sharing.
Because Serena Clarke rocks our world with fabulous books!!! xo
Sometimes I want to get away from life! A trip to Paris thru All Over The Place sounds like the ticket. Plus there are rockers!!!
I love that song and I love the title All Over the Place.
