Customer Reviews

Great and Informative

When I read the book I fought out how they first met each other. Their personal background, how they grew up as a child. I fought out that A.J., Kevin, and I went through the same thing growing up{if you know about those two and what happened in their life.} I love the Backstreetboys and I found out that they try every possible thing they can to make their fans happy. I think that if a Backstreetboys' fan wants to know everything about them they should get this book..It also, has awesome pictures of the group. So, if your a BSB fan I advise you to buy the book.

A Good BSB Read!!!

I have been a Backstreet Boys fan for under a year, but I have to admit I love them. My sweet 19 yr. old brother got me this book for a gift. It was really easy to read (maybe because I'm 16...) & it was entertaining. Their little biographies are so cute. I cried when I read Kevin's, Brian's, & AJ's because of the sad things that happened in their pre-Backstreet lives. Then again I'm really sensative! Anyway, this is a great BSB book, and it has a picture of Kevin wearing a Kentucky tee-shirt! Go UK!!!!

This book was extrordinary, filled with great facts!

This book written by Sherri Rifkin, was filled with great facts, and lots of info! Even though Sherri has never met the Backstreet Boys, she wrote it as if she met them and as if they told her information about their life. Overall it was an excellent book.

If you don't have it already, I recommend you buy it, NOW!!!

It was a sensational book! I learned so much about the 5 hottest guys in the world. I am so glad I bought it. I'm in the middle of reading it a 4th time.

If you are a BIG BSB fan like me, you will LUV this book.:o)

This book is grreaat!!! I am OBSESSED with the Backstreet Boys! I expecially luv Brian and Nick. But this book makes me luv all of boys that make up the Backstreet Boys, each in a different way. I learned about each of them individually, and I have stuff in common with each of them. I learned about what happened before they hit it big in the US. And I also learned how to tell if a BSB is flirting with you. God, I hope I can use this info in the near future. Anyways, this book is great, and everyone should get it! Keep the Backstreet pride alive! BSB4EVER!
