5.0

This book pulls you IN. As a documentary lover this was a new kind of reading experience for me, but I hope to find more books in this style—and hopefully on a similar level of craft. Walton’s use of history, both real and fictionalized, is masterful. This really does feel like a tell all that would blow up and be the talk of twitter for weeks on end. If you like documentaries, Black activism, rock, music, or stories about making sense of your past, Read This Book!!
