After reading All Souls, and not being able to get it out of my mind, I could not wait to read this second book by
Patrick MacDonald.

While his life continued to be unlike anything I'd ever read or even imagined, there were just too many words in this book.
I couldn't keep track of who was who, bands, friends, people... maybe there just wasn't enough detail about each individual to keep them rooted in my brain.

I continue to be facinated how his life progressed, and he was able to survive and be the intellegent person he is today, this book was not quite what I wanted or needed it to be.
