I listened to this while in COVID quarantine and loved the characters and style of “documentary” narrative that felt so real even if it was all fiction. Camila was the real hero of the story. All the different actors who read each voice were great. Big theme of the story is love, addiction, family, and finding your passion on a back drop of sex, drugs, and rock n roll. Would highly recommend!

if you’re interested in the music industry, the 1970s, celebrity life etc then you’ll probably enjoy it; I didn’t really care about the plot or any of the characters but I guess I‘m just really not the target audience - doesn’t mean it’s not a good book (for someone else)

Although that’s exactly what I thought I‘d say about TSHOEH and I ended up loving that book, which is why I gave this one a chance

The format took a little while to get used to but afterwards it was a great story. Absolutely sobbed at the ending (all happy tears). Really showed some of the realities that people similar to the characters faced in the ‘60s and ‘70s.
