I'm Not with the Band: A Writer's Life Lost in Music by Sylvia Patterson

Did not finish book. Stopped at 20%.

This is so so badly written, I don’t understand how it was published. The constant “ver Hits” when referring to Smash Hits is so irritating, I almost threw the book out of the window. It’s just endless ramblings of quite frankly, juvenile interactions with some of the most famous people in music. The hey day of Smash Hits was about 10 years before I was even born but I can safely say, I would not have read it if I was alive and of reading age. Utter garbage, so many other better memoirs about the music industry out there.
