i loved this book with my whole heart. i read it in 2 days and had to force myself to put it down. TJR is a magnificent writer. the characters were so complex and the story line was so well thought out. i wish it could’ve been longer to get more details of little parts of the story but even being 360 pages it was fantastic. i love the rockstar storyline, it was so interesting to have a mix of drama but also what it’s like to actually write an album and live in a studio. i think the author captured the writing and recording process really well for not being a musician. she was able to interweave the characters and the different plots so well with the interview format, the same format made for a quick and easy read. oh how much i loved this book and wish i could read it over again.

Stayed up 2 nights in a row to finish this. Couldn’t put the book down since page 1. Everything about this book is insane. The characters weren’t even nice or lovable. But I get them. Fuck Eddie tho. Man could burn in hell eternally. Graham too for how he made Karen feel. Shout out to the only Karen who matters ever. The only book that does a “love triangle” involving a marriage right. Ever.

This is the first oral-history format I have read, and I was expecting to love it but I totally did. I couldn’t imagine a better way to tell this story.
