It's not a book that takes over a month to read. It would take me less than a single day but I went out of my way to prolong the pleasurable experience. Hands down, "Appetite for Destruction" IS the best hard rock album ever made. I say this with conviction and belief nothing will ever trump that. The passion put into that record is incredible. There's nothing it could be compared to. It's genius and this book says as much. You laugh and you cry simultaneously. Thank you, Marc, for putting this together and for believing in those guys.
