Gray
A fascinating and stunning novel from Pete Wentz, the founder and bassist of punk sensation Fall Out Boy--that reveals the dark side of rock-and-roll. Sometimes, late at night in the hotel room, after the lights have gone out and the mistakes have already been made, when it is heavy and silent and still, I lie awake and listen to my pulse on the pillow... Imagine you are on a tour bus, the miles whistling away beneath you as you sleep. Tomorrow you will wake up in downtown Somewhere. It doesn't matter. All the skylines look the same. Time is only marked by events. The world is on a first-name basis with you. But you...you barely even know yourself. There are those who give in completely to the idea of what it means to be famous. And those who can't ever seem to leave the past behind. Life is a deep and contemplative story stuck on repeat--love, loss, self-destruction, self-discovery. If you could go back to the way things were before you made it...would everything still be gray?

Must read for any fan
Published by Vallie , 1 year ago
The entire story reads like a song. Pete’s use of vague pronouns or nicknames for characters, lengthy sentences with more than four commas. Short to the point three worded sentences. It’s a treasure of a novel. Faces love, heartbreak, fame in motion, addiction, and then some. I’ll be happy when this book is back in stock so that I can order a back up copy to read over and over like my favorite record ;)
Fabulous book

This book is such a deep look into Pete Wentz and the problems he's faced. As someone suffering from depression, it was relieving to find that my favorite lyricist has faced similar things. I highly recommend this book to everyone.
