I'm in the early stages of reading this book after getting it a couple weeks ago at the David Bowie Is exhibition in Brooklyn. It's a slow read for me, something to enjoy in small quantities, to be pulled out when I need some motivation and escape. #davidbowie #firstpost

He was Ziggy Stardust, The Goblin King, and occasionally afraid Of Americans, but he was also #kingoftheworld. He could make magic dance, keep in step with the great Tina Turner, and Mađe me love red shoes. He will Always remind me Of the babe, may he always RIP. #characters2017

This was a wonderful biography of Bowie. I like how the book is divided by albums. I contains wonderful pictures, some of which (from his younger years) I would have never known were him. The quotes that are added, plus how they are added to go with the topic covered and not necessarily in the timeline when it happened. Not the best Bowie bio every, but still one worth reading.
