I loved this show. It was brilliant. Ozzy didn't seem to have enjoyed it so much & I don't blame him. I couldn't do a reality show. I hate cameras.
Have y'all seen it? Any reality star dreams?
#PrinceOfDarknessReadalong
@BethM @AmyG @TheBookHippie @Deblovestoread @kelli7990 @AllDebooks @Jjaxn95 @peaKnit
As Ozzy points out Suicide Solution wasn't on that album nor was that what the sound is about.
Is anyone right to blame the musicians? Personally, I prefer sad music when I'm sad, because I can relate to it & I don't always want to be cheered up. What is your preference?
#PrinceOfDarknessReadalong
@BethM @AmyG @TheBookHippie @Deblovestoread @kelli7990 @AllDebooks @Jjaxn95 @peaKnit
This accident was so incredibly horrible & terrifying.
How does someone process this? Poor Randy he sounded like a really good guy & he was incredibly talented.
#PrinceOfDarknessReadalong
@BethM @AmyG @TheBookHippie @Deblovestoread @kelli7990 @AllDebooks @Jjaxn95 @peaKnit
He bit the head off a bat, a dove, and peed on the Alamo. Ozzy has done some insane things.
Do you think drugs & alcohol were solely to blame, or did reputation become too real at times?
#PrinceOfDarknessReadalong
@BethM @AmyG @TheBookHippie @Deblovestoread @kelli7990 @AllDebooks @Jjaxn95 @peaKnit
I've always loved them as a couple. Even though he was still married when they got together.
But this quote is everything ❤️
What do y'all think?

@BethM @AmyG @TheBookHippie @Deblovestoread @kelli7990 @AllDebooks @Jjaxn95 @peaKnit
I read ten books in September. My favorites were I Am Ozzy and Enigma 🩵
For #ReadOrDonate I'm still reading The Amalfi Coast but The Bat Eater can go.
@julieclair
pickThis is another reread. Julie goes home to Maidenwood to help take care of her Grandmother after her stroke. But a body is found, a psychic shows up and her ex is looking for a graveyard on site.
#WickedWords #liar @AsYouWish
pickThis is good but it's also a rather convoluted ghost story. Anne gets invited to her work friend's parents' mansion for the summer but weird things keep happening.
#WickedWords #suits @asyouwish
pickThis was a fun audiobook about Lourna Dee joining up with the Jedi on a mission.
#StarWarsBuddyRead
#PANTONE25 #HotChoco @Lauredhel
pickThis was good. Imri and his padawan Tet Tet go off to investigate the Blight. Also Churo the Hutt is back.
#StarWarsBuddyRead
#Holonet #jacasranu
pickI loved this book. This is Ozzy's autobiography and Wow. The man has been through a lot.
#PrinceOfDarknessReadalong
#WickedWords #singer @AsYouWish
#Bookspin @TheAromaofBooks
pickThis was good and weird even for dark academia and once you think you know how it's going to end it does a complete 180. Jamie lies her way into an expensive private school so she can figure out who killed her cousin.
#WickedWords #game @AsYouWish
#Pantone2025 #Primrose #@Lauredhel
pickThis was a reread for me and I enjoyed it more the second time. Opal lives in the small town of Edan, where she spends her time working, taking care of her brother, and obsessing over Starling House. Then she gets hired as a housekeeper and things get weird 🐦⬛
#WickedWords #email @asyouwish
Up next in the #PrinceOfDarknessReadalong is
Trust Me, I'm Doctor Ozzy 💊
This should be interesting/insane. I'll have questions for chapters 1-6 on the 15th and chapters 7-12 on the 30th. All are welcome to join in.
And I will have the discussion for I Am Ozzy sometime tomorrow night.
@LitsyEvents
All right @OutsmartYourShelf here are your choices for #DriverPicksTheMusic
#SPNbookbingo2025
In September we checked in with Imri, Tep Tep and Churo the Hutt. I love them. What did y'all?
In October we conclude the High Republic with Trials of the Jedi. And I feel like I'm finally able to keep up with everyone.
As always if anyone wants to be added or removed just let me know. And May the Force Be With You Always 🚀

I'm torn on how much more screwed up he could have been to get kicked out of Black Sabbath than the rest of the band and I think his going solo was the best thing for him.
Question 5: Do you think it was fair that he got kicked out? What about his name change suggestion of Black Sabbath II? And which do you prefer Black Sabbath or Ozzy solo? My favorite is his solo work 🖤
#PrinceOfDarknessReadalong
Oh, the chaos! I can't imagine having to grow up with Ozzy like this. Some of the things he did were truly horrendous, which he admits to, but giving the Vicar hash was funny.
Question 4: This was not the Ozzy we typically associate with. What surprised/bothered you the most?
#PrinceOfDarknessReadalong
Ozzy wanted to start a band because of his love for the Beatles. Their earlier band Earth was a blues band but they are credited as the fathers of heavy metal.
Question 3: Do you think all rock/metal comes from the blues? What would Black Sabbath be without the scary music?
#PrinceOfDarknessReadalong
This broke my heart when I read it. I wonder how many others have gone undiagnosed. I feel like today ADHD is probably overdiagnosed but what about back then and how many parents & teachers miss dyslexia?
Question 2: Are things getting better? Or are students still getting misdiagnosed or ignored? And how do you think Ozzy handled learning lyrics?
#PrinceOfDarknessReadalong
And as it turns out his father was right on both accounts. Ozzy had a rough start he went to prison for burglary but then became a legend.
Question 1: Do you think he learned his lesson or that he just learned that he hated prison? He didn't exactly stick to the straight and narrow. What do you think his father would have thought about his legacy?

My #FFFS swap package came in today. Druzy is keeping an eye on it until opening day 😸 Thank you @avanders
#FallingForFallSwap @Chrissyreadit
pickI loved this book. I seen the movie a number of times and I feel like the book fills in a lot that the movie misses.
So Newton comes to this planet with the idea of making enough money to bring the rest of his people here. But his plan unravels and despair sets in.
#ReadYourKindle @CBee
#WickedWords #record @asyouwish
#DoubleSpin @TheAromaofBooks
pickI enjoyed this cozy. The premise was fantastic. A mystery-themed book festival in a small town. Which sounds fantastic until a dead body is found in a hidden room in the local bookstore 📚
pickI loved this book. Salem's sister supposedly committed suicide at her college but Salem doesn't believe so she enrolls to investigate. There she meets Cass, a man with his own dark past and someone she can't stay away from 💙
