Wonderland Avenue: Tales of Glamour and Excess

Summary: Made me Cringe
Review: While I read Sugarman's book, I kept growing increasingly uncomfortable with the situations that kept coming up. Some of them were too familar to me. Mainly the 'I will risk life and limb to get high' scenario. My ex-husband was very much like Sugarman in a way; he was raised wealthy, spoiled and bored and nearly threw it all away once the partying got out of control. There is a section in this book where Sugarman takes a trip to NY and goes into Harlem to buy drugs, my ex- husband used to do that all the time, go into strange neighborhoods no matter what the risk. This is a book that should be distributed in rehabs all over, especially where teenagers are getting treatment for the first time. Maybe it would help some of them realize after reading some of Sugarman's horror stories, that it really isn't worth it.

Summary: The best book ever written (excluding the bible)
Review: Wonderland Avenue by danny sugerman, is the best book in the world. It tells you everything about his life with a humorous twist. His account on Jim Morrison and the doors tells everything in a brilliant perspective. He indicates to the reader what it was like growing up in the '60s, and also what Jim Morrison was like. This book inspired me to listen to and read more about the doors and jim morrison. If i were someone who wanted to read a great book about music, love, drugs, and rock n' roll, then you should most definately read this book.
