Whiskey and porn stars, hot reds and car crashes, black leather and high heels, overdoses and death. This is the life of Mötley Crüe, the heaviest drinking, hardest fighting, most oversexed and arrogant band in the world. Their unbelievable exploits are the stuff of rock ‘n’ roll legend. They nailed the hottest chicks, started the bloodiest fights, partied with the biggest drug dealers, and got to know the inside of every jail cell from California to Japan. They have dedicated an entire career to living life to its extreme, from the greatest fantasies to the darkest tragedies. Tommy married two international sex symbols; Vince killed a man and lost a daughter to cancer; Nikki overdosed, rose from the dead, and then OD’d again the next day; and Mick shot a woman and tried to hang his own brother. But that’s just the beginning.

Ive been dying to read this book for a long time. Because I am a pretty big fan of Motley Crue and wanted to read this book. And finally I did.

The writing style in this book is amazing. Neil Strauss really did a good job at putting together a very good written book about Motley Crue.

This book gives us the insider story of Motley Crue which the newspapers and news report overlooks. And this book puts this insider story of Motley Crue in a very relatable way even thou most people reading this book aren’t world famous rock starts. 

This book has 4 perspectives from Vince Neil, Nikki Sixx, Mick Mars and Tommy Lee. Which gives this book access to their the stories of each of the member of Motley Crue. And all of the stories we get in this book shows us that all of the members in Motley Crue had some shit happening to them. Which really makes you realize that each member of Motley Crue is just like then rest of the us and not just the big musicians which not bad happens to.

This book also talks about how really fucked up it was being a rock star in the 80s and  90s. And the music records aspect of being a musician in the 80s and 90s.

If you are a Motley Crue fan, rock’n roll fan or music fan in general I believe that you will like this book a lot. 

I Give This Book 4 / 5
