I read Pamela Des Barres's first book, \\n  I'm With The Band\\n, and didn't mind it enough to think I could move on to her follow-up.

However, I soon realized that I should have stopped at the first one.

As I listened to this audiobook, which was narrated by the author herself, the only part that didn't irritate me was the heartbreaking account of her father's passing. Pamela's voice broke and she choked up as she told the story, and it was impossible not to hear the pain of her loss, even after all these years.

But that was the only redeeming factor.

The rest of the book was a disaster. While Des Barres is somewhat entertaining in a flighty, ditzy kind of way, the truth is that she just isn't very bright.

Yes, she went against the grain and did what she wanted with her life, which is admirable. She managed to get into music, acting, and now writing, but she did it more through notoriety than talent.

And then there's the story of her marriage to Michael Des Barres. She constantly吹捧 him as an incredibly talented and amazing artist, but all I saw was a guy who was only able to step in at the last minute when the real talent walked away. His two most high-profile moments were playing the lead singer of a fictional band on WKRP in Cincinnati and filling in as the touring vocalist for a Duran Duran side project. He was basically a spoiled brat with a fancy title and no real substance.

And don't even get me started on how they parented their only child. The mismanagement was简直令人难以置信. I winced as Pamela recounted the story of one failed therapist or school placement after another.

Overall, this is just a cringe-worthy, awful book about two people who had more luck than they deserved, less intelligence than they needed, and very little talent. It's a slow-motion trainwreck of a rock 'n' roll lifestyle that I could have done without.

It's just not worth the read.

I have been on a "groupie book" kick recently. So, I decided to tune in and listen to the rest of Pamela Des Barres' stories. I really enjoyed her loving and spirited nature that was so evident in her first book. I was hoping that as she moved further away from the 60s, she wouldn't lose that wonderful quality. Well, she definitely is still all about the love, which is something I truly appreciate.

However, I just couldn't get into this particular book. The reason being that Des Barres got way too obsessed with the cosmic. I have a love for religion and I completely agree with the idea of piecing together a belief system that suits you. But for me, cosmic readings that claim to take you back to past lives are just a bit too much. Everyone has their own preferences, of course. But in this case, this aspect took over the book for me and made it difficult for me to fully appreciate the rest of her stories.

Nevertheless, she has lived a quite remarkable life and I did enjoy my little peek into it. I'm glad that she has such a good memory for both the good times and the bad. She accounted for the ups and downs that everyone experiences in life. And I am definitely glad that her publisher turned down her attempt at fiction writing.

I'm still in the process of reading this particular book, and so far, I really like it. The author wrote a book titled "I'm With the Band", but unfortunately, it wasn't available at the library. Instead, I got this other one.

To my surprise, it has turned out to be quite interesting and makes for really fun reading. The story is engaging, and the characters are well-developed. It has a unique charm that keeps pulling me in with each page I turn.

I'm looking forward to seeing how the rest of the book unfolds and what other surprises it has in store for me. It's always nice to discover a new book that can capture your attention and make you forget about the outside world for a while.

I would definitely recommend this book to others who are looking for an enjoyable read.

I'm a little late to the sequel party. However, it's really interesting to follow up with what she was doing after the last book left off.

As I delved into the new installment, I found myself immediately drawn into her world once again. The author did a great job of picking up where the previous story ended, seamlessly continuing the narrative and building on the characters and plot.

It's fascinating to see how she has grown and changed since the last book. Her experiences have shaped her, and she now faces new challenges and opportunities. I can't wait to see what adventures await her in the pages to come.

The sequel has definitely lived up to my expectations so far, and I'm eager to keep reading and find out what happens next.

If you are in love with or living with an addict, this is without a doubt a must-read that will at least assist you in feeling less isolated.

It was as if a girlfriend was by my side, holding my hand during those dark and difficult times.

The book offers valuable insights and practical advice on how to cope with the challenges that come with being in such a situation.

It explores the complex emotions and behaviors that addicts exhibit, as well as the impact it has on those around them.

By reading this, you will gain a better understanding of the addict's perspective and learn strategies to protect yourself and your own well-being.

It is a source of comfort and support for those who are going through a similar experience, reminding them that they are not alone and that there is hope for a better future.

The ex-groupie, who seems to be a completely useless mother, and a doormat wife as well, is also badly written about. It's truly exasperating. One can't help but want to scream at the top of one's lungs, "Why don't you parent your spoiled brat?" This question lingers in the air 24/7. It's as if the author is painting a rather unflattering picture of this woman. Maybe she has her own story, her own struggles that led to her being in this situation. But the way it's presented here makes it seem like she's just a mess of a person.

It makes one wonder if there's more to her than meets the eye. Could there be reasons why she's not able to parent her child effectively? Or is she just really that bad at it? These are the kinds of questions that come to mind when reading this description.

It's a thought-provoking piece that makes us think about the complexity of human nature and the different roles people play in life.

Such an interesting life! There are so many exciting things happening every day. It's like a never-ending adventure. But there is one mystery that keeps bothering me. I really want to know who HIM is. Is he a close friend? A significant other? Or perhaps a person with whom I have a special connection but haven't yet discovered? The thought of HIM lingers in my mind, making me curious and eager to find out the truth. Maybe one day, I will finally meet HIM and揭开这个谜团. Until then, I will continue to enjoy this interesting life and look forward to the day when I can solve the mystery of HIM.

Despite having read and adored her other two books, I was rather hesitant when it came to this one.

I had the perception that it would be more of a personal memoir and might not hold anything overly interesting. However, after delving into it, my love for Miss Pamela only deepened.

This book focuses more on her personal life post-"groupiedom." But one should not give in to the preconceived notion that her life after the rock stars couldn't be equally fascinating.

Her voice within the pages of this book transports you right into her life, a life that was often filled with heartbreak, and I felt every bit of it.

I truly admired Miss Pamela before, and I'm extremely glad that I read her story, which allowed me to get to know her on a much deeper level.

It's amazing how a book can change one's perspective and enhance the connection with the author.

This book is a testament to the fact that there's always more to a person's story than meets the eye.

Miss Pamela's journey is one that is both captivating and inspiring, and I'm grateful to have had the opportunity to read about it.

Meh. Maybe I didn't care for this book.

The reason could be that I read it immediately after reading her first book and there was some repetition.

This made the reading experience a bit less engaging for me.

I found myself getting kind of bored as I progressed through the pages.

It seemed like I was reading the same ideas and concepts that I had already come across in the previous book.

However, I understand that authors sometimes have a certain style or theme that they like to explore, and perhaps this was the case here.

Despite my initial disappointment, I will still give the author the benefit of the doubt and look forward to seeing what else she has to offer in the future.

Maybe her next book will be more unique and captivating, and will leave a better impression on me.

I absolutely adored this book.

Although I don't believe Pamela is the most outstanding writer, I am completely enamored with her unique voice.

Her life is truly captivating and full of interesting stories.

While reading this, I was truly inspired.

Her honesty is truly remarkable and her life is almost incomprehensible.

I am eagerly anticipating reading the remainder of her works.

I am an obsessed fan, or a groupie if you prefer to call it that.

I just can't get enough of her writing and her life experiences.

Every page of her book is like a new adventure for me, and I can't wait to see what else she has in store for her readers.

I had to travel back in time to peruse the review I penned regarding her initial book, "I'm With The Band." And I must confess that I have a far greater affinity for this book compared to that one, despite the fact that I did indeed relish it as well.

I adored all the rock 'n' roll monikers she casually dropped. But even more so, I was overjoyed to witness that she had matured throughout her experiences and was in a significantly better state. Happily married (at the commencement of the book), she is blessed with a child, a boy, and all is wonderful in her petite world until it isn't.

I simply could not put the book down; I had an insatiable urge to discover how it all culminated. And I am somewhat astounded by the remarkably solid perspective she has on life, considering all that she has endured. I am truly inspired. She is a unique individual, one of a kind. This book is most definitely worth the read!

This was truly a remarkable book.

It was not only highly entertaining but also extremely interesting.

One could clearly sense that there was no animosity or ill will within its pages.

I have always had a profound love and great enjoyment for her books, and this particular one is no exception.

It is a book that I would wholeheartedly recommend to those individuals who have a penchant for celebrity gossip.

The author has managed to craft a story that is both engaging and captivating, filled with juicy details and fascinating insights into the lives of the rich and famous.

Whether you are a die-hard fan of celebrity culture or simply looking for a light and enjoyable read, this book is sure to satisfy.

So, if you are in the mood for some delicious celebrity gossip, be sure to pick up this book and prepare to be entertained.
