Summary: Ehhhhh, not too bad, not too good....
Review: Being the biggest fan of Layne Staley, I was hoping for alot more from this book. I understand from reading this, it isnt easy to write too much on him, because he basically was very sheltered and private. I just though there was alot in this book that was just page fillers. There was alot of info that frankly had nothing to do with Layne at all, and lost my interest quite a bit. However, there was some good stuff too, and it was cool just to read some his letters and poems. I didnt learn all that nuch I already didnt know, except for his family life. If your a huge fan, I guess its worth the read, if not, you'll probably throw the book away.

Summary: It's about Layne
Review: Let me begin by saying that I haven't finished the book yet. Being someone who considers Layne the best singer in history, I am eager to get my hands on any new information available. When I read the reviews here before buying it, I was skeptical it would be any good. Admittedly, the writing is mediocre. She rambles a bit, and so far her discussion of lyrics is off the mark.BUT - the interviews are good, and this book is worthwhile just to see all the photos of Layne and his family (in spite of the lousy photo quality), see his ink drawings, and read his own poetry and other writing. For anyone truly interested in this genius, dropping the $12 on this book is a no-brainer.
