Slash of Guns and Roses was good.
As was Sammy Hagar's.

I had forgotten Slash had written a bio. That has got to be worth reading.

Who is Sammy Hagar?

Bruce Springsteen's autobiography but the audio book, read by him. I only wish it included some music.

I'm Glad My Mom Died by Jennette McCurdy

Jennette is a child actress from Nickelodeon's iCarly and Sam & Cat. I could not stop reading this book. It's very interesting and complex.

Just Kids was incredible

I thought I'm Glad My Mom Died was really well done, too - very different from Just Kids!

Has anyone read Lana Del Ray's stuff? I can't bring myself to buy it yet.

Just Kids, for sure.

Open by Andre Agassi -- Extraordinarily candid memoir about forgiveness and finding your authentic self. You don't have to be a tennis player to enjoy this book.

I read that one right after reading Brooke Shields book, which made things super interesting since they both wrote about their relationship.

Lucinda Williams’ memoir came out this week and is really good for any fan. A slim volume with little after 2009, but great background on Car Wheels.

Tom Hanks wrote a book of short stories that is quite good.

I enjoyed Mackenzie Phillips' "High on Arrival." I never watched her show One Day at a Time and am only a casual fan of the Mamas and the Papas, but I found her book totally readable, despite the hideous subject matter (drug abuse, incest).

There is a special place in Hell for John Phillips and hopefully he is burning in it.

I'll have to check this out. I love Gn' R but frankly, I'm astonished that they're all still alive, given the debauchery and sheer amount of substances they all consumed in their heyday. Some years ago, I read Duff McKagan's memoir "It's So Easy, and Other Lies" and enjoyed it. He is very lucky to be alive, having cheated death from alcoholic pancreatitis. It was inspiring to hear about how he clawed his life back and his continuing journey with sobriety.
