Everyone Loves You When You're Dead: Journeys into Fame and Madness by Neil Strauss
4.0
A Book about Life
I think my original intent when buying this book was to read dirt on celebrities. There is that, but more. People are flawed and make poor choices in search of happiness; some of them just happen to be rich and famous. I ended up enjoying stories about people I’d never heard of just as much as the ones about Lady Gaga or Cher. The book also introduced me to music by some of those people I’d never heard of as well as reignited my interest in music from points in my life years ago. This book shows the power of asking questions and finding connections with other people.
