For me it was Bruce Sprinsgsteen. Amazing career and I was really excited when it came out, but man it was a ramble.
Like others have said, celebrities just aren't great at summing up their lives in an entertaining, good read. They want to tell long stories, they want to settle things, they want to dispel things that have been said about them.
But in Springsteen's case, it was 500 some odd pages, small print and it was like an old man just sat down and started right from the beginning of life, plodding through everything that happened. I bailed halfway through.
