Book Reviews of the The Heroin Diaries: A Year in the Life of a Shattered Rock Star
Customer Review: Get the soundtrack too!
Summary: 5 Stars
I confess that I knew of Motley Crue, but didn't know who Nikki Sixx was, before last week. I was lucky enough to receive his book and CD at a function where he was talking about his recovery from addiction. The book is great, and it is 10 times better when you also listen to the soundtrack. Amazing lyrics and music.
If you've ever wanted to undersand someone who's been depressed or addicted to anything, this book unflinchingly expresses what some of those thoughts and feelings are like. And, if you have ever been depressed or addicted yourself, you will be reminded that you are not alone. Ultimately, this is a hopeful story of survival and healing.
For those who wonder how an adult can still be dealing with childhood pain, all I can say is that unresolved stuff can stay with you for a lifetime, whether you're conscious of it or not. Hats off to anyone who has the courage to face their hurts and anxieties, and who helps others do the same.
The soundtrack is absolutely cathartic. The more you listen to the words and music, the more you feel for what Nikki and others have gone through. If you are taken aback by casual sex and profanity, this book is not for you. But if you want to glimpse the human feelings underneath, I recommend the book and especially the soundtrack.
