What a great time I'm having listening to Chris Frantz read this book and learning the detailed connections between Talking Heads, Tom Tom Club and other bands of that era.

I continue to be very impressed with this memoir/advice guide. He is so honest and open that it can be painful for me to think about how difficult it must have been for him but I applaud him for doing so.

Not surprised that an artist who reveals so much of herself in her music is a great storyteller!

At this point in the book, I'm learning a LOT about the ins and outs of how the Tour teams are chosen so it's not as captivating as the beginning of the book was when he recounted his childhood and riding years.

Robin is on page 300 of 528 of Beyond the Point
This is on my Kindle, a digital review copy, making it easy to read at our tiny staff room table during breaks and lunch. The female friendships among these women who bonded as West Point cadets is becoming strained as they make their way into the real world after graduation.
