5.0
While hard to listen to, this book was a fascinating insight to Elton John's life. From his rocky start to his sudden fame, down to the dirty details of his addictions and failed relationships. I really came away from this book marveling at all the life he's lived. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who loves a good celebrity memoir!

This book deals heavily with Elton John's drug use, addictions (drugs, sex, and eating disorders). It also features discussion about the death of friends and the AIDs crisis in the 80s.bwaymadeline's review against another edition

4.5
The impact Elton John has on music yesterday, today and tomorrow across different genres is huge. Rock, disco, classical, pop, musical, film… He has done just about everything, a real musical centipede. And boy, can that man sing and write music. Not everyone is a fan of his music (which is completely okay) but you can't deny the impact he has on music.
I listened to the audiobook and highly recommend it for long car rides. The full book narrated by Taron Egerton, who also plays Elton John in the great movie Rocketman, is available in full on Spotify.
