I took a long time to get to this - a year after my super-cool brother & sister-in-law bought it for me as a Christmas present.

And you know what? I love The Boss more than ever.

This is a well written, considered, and intelligent read.

Fascinating if you’re a fan, fascinating if you’re interested in a slice of 20th century social history and popular culture.

Loved it.

Fantastic audiobook! Felt like I was having my own private conversation with Bruce himself.

i have days when my boundaries wobble, my darkness and the blues seem to beckon and i seek to medicate myself in whatever way i can. but on my best days, i can freely enjoy the slow passing of time, the tenderness that is in my life; i can feel the love i'm a part of surrounding me and flowing through me; i am near home and i am standing hand in hand with those i love, past and present, in the sun, on the outskirts of something that feels, almost... like being free.

bruceeeee. bruce. oh my god…… i loved this, i love his music so much. this is so so good. i could feel the emotion in every page……..

I'm not a fan of his, never followed his career or listened to his music. So why did I listen to over 18 hours of him recount his life ? Well it was highly recommended by a reading friend. I was worried I wouldn't last 18 hours of hearing the same voice ramble on but I never was bored, or ready to shut him up. I am a fan of the man but still not of the music, sorry Bruce. He was brutally honest digging deep into his and his, his bands and his families troubles. I was entranced by his words and the emotional kick he put into his audio retelling. If you love a good story, give it a listen
