Welcome to Litsy!

For so long I‘ve avoided reading NF books about Nirvana (or Kurt) because I knew they‘d make me sad. I did get sad throughout this book, but I learned some things about the band and the individual members that I didn‘t know already. I‘d recommend to any fan.

A pic of my dog Max because he‘s cute! And a pic of me with the Nirvana street mural in Los Angeles from my trip there this past summer.

I‘m sorry this is so late @PuddleJumper but I have finally got round to checking my #roll100 books for April! Here they are. I‘m not sure which one I will choose yet but I‘m hoping to fit it in with #thingsincommon this month so I‘ll see what link I can find!

April 5, 1994.

A deeply tragic and impressive biography. While some may take issue with the way Cross interprets certain events, I think this book gives the best and most honest perspective on who Kurt was — a son, musician, husband, and dad.

I am posting one book per day from my to-be-read collection. No description and providing no reason for wanting to read it. Some will be old, some will be new - don't judge me, I have a lot of books.

Day 64th

Join the fun if you want!

It‘s been forever since I‘ve picked this up. Idk what to say so far. There is brilliance in the madness. Some of the writing is hard to read. So much insight to the multiple layers of Cobain.

Was inspired to review this book from a recent post from @TheNeverendingTB. that includes Nirvana. This is the exact type of bio I like. You get a glimpse in to Cobain‘s early life and a good amount about his career and outlooks on life. As someone who is really fascinated by Cobain‘s life, this pick was a no brainer. If you‘re interested in Kurt Cobain and the early 90s Seattle grunge scene, it‘s a good read.

Kurt was awesome.

There‘s something about reading a person‘s thoughts in their own handwriting that elicits a feeling of connection that doesn‘t happen in typewritten text or even spoken language. Reading Kurt‘s journals is making my chest tight.
