4.5 stars
The author was a member of the Punk band, the Slits and very much lived the late 70's punk lifestyle. I found this book mesmerizing and the punk scene so fascinating and frankly a bit intimidating. The second half of the book is more relatable to my life as it details her life post-punk. Marriage, infertility, motherhood and trying to go back to herself amongst all that. My only minor quibble is that it is told in a somewhat awkward present tense. This may not bother most people, and it didn't much bother me, it just seemed a strange way to relay events that happened decades ago. Overall, I really recommend if you like reading about the music scene.
