TJR can definitely write a book. There was so much I enjoyed about this book; the writing was incredible and it held my interest the entire time. But, it didn't give me that 5 star feeling and I think that's down to the themes not being for me.

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!
