Rated The Jesus and Mary Chain's Psychocandy 4/10
Ugh. This could have used some.... strong guidance from an editor as to what was necessary to include. The times that the author references herself could have worked if this was written as a mix of analysis and memoir, but instead, it was more like an uneven mixture of decent analysis paired with conjecture with the occasional, "And then I did this/liked this/talked to this person." It was really uneven, and I wanted to be charitable and give it three stars because music commentary is indeed subjective. There was so much padding in here that was -supposed- to be cultural context, but it felt tacked on as an "Oh shit, gotta make this book a certain length" at the end. <br><br>There are strong bits, and I love this album, but overall I don't recommend buying this book.<br><br>(Full disclosure: I received this book for free via NetGalley.)

Rated Professor Bernice Summerfield and the Greatest Shop in the Galaxy 8/10
This one had its funny moments, but I look forward to hearing one of these older audios that isn't loosely centered around "men being weird around Benny."
