Book Review: Vivid Picture of Addiciton
Summary: 5 Stars
Nikki Sixx painted a vivid picture of just how far he had fell into addiction. It's amazing he has survived My only complaint of the book was his constant blaming his problems on his childhood. Not enough accepting responsibility for his own actions. Interesting read, none the less.
Book Review: Life At Higher Volume
Summary: 5 Stars
What a ride! Anybody whose sruggled with the symptom of addiction has to be almost instantly drawn into the delimma related by Nikki Sixx in the Heroine Diaries. There is an unquestionable honesty that attatches to those of us who do,have or will face similar struggles. It is addiction in all it's facets played at maximum volume. There is,throughout the book a subtle melody of hope that is very discernable to anybody listening. A true exercise in "giving it away in order to keep it" Thanks Nikki.Book Review: An excellent tale of Insanity
Summary: 5 Stars
Wow!!! I bought this book after hearing Life is Beautiful on the radio. I've never been into drugs and I'm extremely thankful for that. However, I've known people who've suffered with these same issues, some made it and some didn't. I had ever opportunity to try the buffet but I chose not to. I knew by the time I was a teenager that I have an excessive personality; moderation is hard for me. I'm a chain smoker and that's enough for me. Nikki Sixx has done a wonderful thing with this book, it shows others that there is and can be a light at the end of the tunnel. Addiction comes in many forms and until you recognize it you're held prisoner by your own fear. I applaud the honesty and strength it must have taken to share his personal hell with the world. A famous author said, about other famous authors, they didn't drink because they were writer's they drank because they were alcoholics. Addiction is what it is and nothing will change that. We can wish and hope that those out there who are struggling with their demons can read this memoir and find some solace. Even a wealthy rock star can fall on his face. You're not alone.
Bravo!!!
