Those little sections were so wonderful and brought me back to life in the 90's. Remember when we were excited by "hidden tracks" in CDs? And I also appreciate the fact that MTV books, according to Joe in an NPR interview, wanted to publish this book...if he made it set in present day with present day bands the inspiraration for the character. Right, because someone's life has really been changed for the better by listening to Good Charlotte. However, the story line just sort of peters out for me and the character's change feels a little quick and a little unearned. <br/><br/><a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/list/133947?utm_medium=api&utm_source=blog_review">View all my reviews.</a>
