I would have considered myself a life-long HUGE fan before reading this. I’ve seen her live at least 5 times and own at least one copy of everything she’s ever done. After reading this, holy shit I don’t know if I can even do it anymore. The book is often racist or ill informed. She uses so many thesaurus words that it is cringey. But what is worst of all—this bad ass 90s rocker spends the whole book talking about men. Every single piece of this memoir is about her relation to a man. It’s so sad and boring. Nothing deeper than that. It’s 17 separate brunch conversations with the friend who only wants to talk about her ex boyfriend. We could have all done without the entire chapter about how she had #metoo stories but Ryan Adams isn’t as bad as most of them so he shouldn’t be cancelled!!! Holy hell her editor should be fired.
