I am verklempt! This book made me happy, then sad, then angry, once again happy, then annoyed and finally a sobbing mess. So many emotions... so many beautiful quotes... so many twists and turns I never saw coming. I thought God-Shaped Hole was phenomenal, but HtKaRS was mind-blowingly awesome! Tiffanie DeBartolo I bow at your throne of literary genius. Its a tragedy that this author hasn't released more books. This is a story about lov

I really loved this book, though sometimes I really wanted to slap Eliza upside the head - what was she thinking???
This book was an emotional rollercoaster that's for sure which pulled at the heart strings and had me in tears in parts.
Being a love of Indie music I just loved Paul and his staunch values and what music meant to him - to him it was all about the music and his love for Eliza - it really was beautiful.
The music references took me back - made me want to go and check out some Pink Floy

I had very mixed feelings on How to Kill a Rock Star. There were parts I absolutely loved and parts that I almost couldn't continue because I hated the direction it was going so much.

Eliza is a music journalist. When she lands a great job at a music magazine she jumps at the opportunity to move to New York and be in the same city as her brother. Because Michael (Eliza's brother) and his wife's apartment is so small, Eliza moves in with Michael's best friend Paul, the talented singer in her brot

Holy Cow!..this book was not anything i was expecting it to be..and it's also not anything i would have normally chosen to read...but i am SO glad i did (THANK YOU SHARON!!)...although i will admit, i wasn't thinking that at a certain part in the book! OMG!..Thank God it went ON..that's all i'm sayin'!

How To Kill a Rock Star was a really unique and interesting story...it was almost poetic in the way the meanings and feelings behind the music were described..something i didn't exp

"For what its worth, I think happiness is a fleeting condition, not a permanent goddamn state of mind. I've learned that if you chase after moments of bliss here and there, sometimes those moments will sustain you through the shit. He paused to pick a piece of tobacco off his tongue. Personally, I don't like inherently happy people. I don't trust them. I think there is something seriously wrong with anyone who isn't at least a little let down by the world."


LOVED this book. I found it compulsive

Unbelievably good!

เรื่องนี้ถ้าให้สิบดาวได้ เราให้หมดตัว รู้สึกเซ็งตัวเองที่เคยหยุดอ่านเรื่องนี้ไปตอนช่วงแรกเพราะคิดว่าตัวเองเดาเรื่องได้ พอกลับมาอ่านเท่านั้นแหละ หยุดอ่านไม่ได้เลย เนื้อเรื่องมันน่าติดตามไปหมด

How to Kill a Rock Star ตามชื่อเรื่องเลยเป็นนิยายเกี่ยวกับวงดนตรีร็อคตั้งแต่เริ่มตั้งตัวจนไปถึงโด่งดัง อ่านเรื่องนี้ไปนึกถึงAlmost Famousไปด้วย แม้เนื้อเรื่องมันไม่ใกล้เคียงกันหรอก แต่สภาพแวดล้อมมันทำให้นึกถึง

Paulเป็นหัวหน้าวงเพลงร็อคที่ตั้งวงกับพี่สาวของนางเอก Elizaเป็นแฟนดนตรีมาตั้งแต่เด็

Paul and Eliza are a pretty damaged pair. Somehow, they work and they only work together.

Paul Hudson, an amazing musician, was pushed into the popularity contest of corporate music labels.



This book had my emotions going all over the place. I was everywhere from laughing to sobbing.



I adored Tiffanie DeBartolo's writing style, ability to play with emotions and insight into the music world.

PS - I think I love a green suit!
