Fantastic read!

I picked this book up at a used bookstore in Brooklyn and had no idea who Joyce Johnson was at the time. It's an amazing tale of love, adventure, alcoholism...you name it, it's in there and it's all woven together in a believable, relatible way. Numerous times I was brought to tears by the the simplicity of emotion stated. Johnson has a gift that stands alone, without her history of JK and the beats.
