Book Reviews of The Heroin Diaries: A Year in the Life of a Shattered Rock Star
Book Review: This is unbelievable...
Summary: 5 Stars
This is one of the only things that i own that i would run into a burning building to save...along with The Dirt and On The Road by Kerouac, it is, for me, the best thing i have ever read.
If you've ever wondered what it's like to be on drugs, you now need not chemically experiment, because this book is graphic...and it's dirty, suicidal, hilarious and heartbreaking...and a huge relief that one of the most incredible performers in rock lived through it...
I loved Nikki Sixx before i read this...and now I think i'm a different person for reading it...it goes into a lot of detail and deep thought about his childhood, lovers (chicks=trouble, apparently), bandmates and music...it's fascinating to see someone's mind working through all the stuff he went through...and even better that they're true diary entries of exactly what he felt at the time...at the heart of all the bravado and glitter is a ridiculously intelligent, complex person who probably just helped hundreds of people just by publishing this...
You won't put it down.
(and buy the soundtrack...it's like a tim burton movie on crack in the best way!)
