I want this book to stay on my book shelf even though I am not going to waste my time finishing it. I didn't want to delete it so I knew no other way to give my review but to give it some kind of star and to say that I had read it without getting "You started Life so many days ago" from my GoodReads newsletter. I DO NOT recommend this book to anybody. Not even a die hard Rolling Stones fan. Everything I wanted to find out about the Stones in this book, just wasn't there. Poorly written, poorly edited. I am the type of reader who just has to finish any book that I start. But recently at a book retreat when we were priveledged to have the author of our book, "I am not a Serial Killer", Dan Wells came to speak to all of us women. He made the comment, and this is not word for word, but has stayed on my mind since. Don't waste your time on a book that you are not enjoying. So there Keith. I hated your book and will not waste another second on trying to finish. That is all I have to say on that.

Mandi Matlock My feeling exactly!!!


Gerry Everything wasn't there? Quite an inane remark seeing that you didn't even finish it...


Bobbi B I'm currently reading this book & although I admit I kind of struggled at the start, I'm so glad I kept reading because I'm really enjoying the 2nd half. I think it's because the start refers so much to different kinds of guitar play etc of which I have no knowledge whatsoever & and also it's getting used to keiths lingo lol. Some of the stories in the 2nd half have been fascinating, I don't know how the mans still alive! I'm definitely glad I stuck with it :)


Laura Beth You summed it very nicely, Cindy.


2010toots Szyszkowski I practically never give up on a book but this one sucked the life out of me and I gladly gave up after reading a quarter which felt like forever


Dmb712 Bentkowski I'm relieved to see someone else didn't enjoy this book. I got a lttle more than half way & decided I wasted enough time on it . I didn't finish it, a rare occurence.
