This was a fun read, and I quite enjoy the cover art and all the pictures included. Would I say it’s the best book about U2 out there? No, probably not. The flow of it, and the author’s syntax did not exactly gel with me at times, and the book should have been a little more thoroughly proofread. Also, the text on the black pages should have been a different color; I could barely read it at times unless I put a flashlight on it. That being said, I did learn some things I didn’t know which is always fun.
I won a copy of this book from a GoodReads giveaway.
This book did a fantastic job of blending the history of what was going on in the world with the history of the band and biographical information on each band member. I loved seeing the photos and memorabilia and reading the behind-the-scenes stuff about some of my favorite songs and albums. It has definitely been a journey of discovery for U2 and their fans. I think I am going to go play some of their music now...
