Life | Keith Richards

Being a bear of very little brain at the moment, I‘ve gone for a book that‘s in the house, reported to be a really good read, and I‘m not invested enough in to be horribly disappointed if they all turn out to be despicable characters!

Plus a matching song, (The Stones - It‘s Only Rock‘n‘Roll) which had a truly horrible single cover.

rockpools The book also happens to contain one of my all time favourite rock‘n‘roll index entries. And what do you mean you don‘t have a favourite index entry?! 1y

squirrelbrain Now we need to know what the index entry is! 😁 1y

rockpools @squirrelbrain Saving that til I actually read the book! Also debating whether now would be a good time to read Daisy Jones instead. What do you reckon. Would I hate it?! 1y

Cinfhen Ohhhh, share!!! And I LOVE the choice💗 1y

Cinfhen Daisy J is another great book for the prompt!! I heard the audio for Daisy is AMAZING 1y

squirrelbrain I liked Daisy Jones, but read it years ago…. I think at the first ever Gladstone‘s! This one was *much* better and I loved it on audio, if you can get it. It would also fit the prompt. I think you loved it too, Cindy? @Cinfhen

Mary Jane: a Novel

Cinfhen Ohhhhh, that‘s a fabulous suggestion @squirrelbrain 1y

rockpools @Cinfhen @squirrelbrain Post two books I intend to read, stack 4 I might read instead! Standard 😁. Thanks guys - I don‘t remember seeing Mary Jane but it sounds fab! 1y

The Stone Age: Sixty Years of The Rolling Stones | Lesley-Ann Jones

pick

141/150 This is a very strange book, its not easy to review. There is an uneasy dichotomy within it. On one hand, the author greatly admires and respects the Rolling Stones musical legacy and their talent, but on the other hand, her words drip with disgust and disdain when discussing the private lives of the band members. Their misogyny, their womanizing, their drug use, Jagger's serial infidelity, Wyman's pedophilia, continued in the comments ⬇️

RamsFan1963 and the bands general callousness to their fans and former band members like Brian Jones. It's definitely a warts and all portrayal of the band. 4 ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 2y

RamsFan1963 3rd book finished for #NovelNovember @Andrew65 2y

Andrew65 Going great 👏👏👏 2y
