Listen to the musical inspiration behind What We Sacrifice for Magic.

I listened to these songs while writing and any time I was working on the book to put me into the mindset of the protagonist, Elisabeth Watry-Ridder, and the summer of 1968. Every time I hear “For What It’s Worth,” I know it’s time to get down to business and work on the book. I’m instantly transported to Elisabeth’s Minnesota, the songs that would’ve been playing on her radio, or at the record store in Minneapolis.
