4.0 out of 5 stars Growing up Jamming, January 9, 2008

By	Winged Heels (Minneapolis, MN USA) - See all my reviews

This book was a sweet read. I hadn't expected it to be anything other than an ode to Paul Weller, but it was actually much more than that. It encapsulates growing pains in general, and the special "thrills" of growing up in the early '80's in particular.

Highly enjoyable.
