I really enjoyed the documentary style writing of this book. It made it very easy to read, and allowed for some funny back and forths between the characters. I do feel like the voices were written too similarly overall and it was hard to differentiate the personalities or speaking styles of each character without it being explicitly stated what their traits were. There were some really big topics in here that were a quite glossed over, and it felt a bit tongue and cheek in its stereotypical ‘drugs, sex, and rock and roll’ perspective. I did however enjoy the inclusion of the lyrics to the album, it was fun to flip back and forth - comparing the story of creation with final lyrics. Written version of almost famous. Overall, there are flaws in this book but it was a very enjoyable and easy read
