Welcome to Litsy!

@Cinfhen I'm still reeling from the fact that Jenny didn't get through to the live shows! #AddictedtoTheChase #teamvixen forever!

This book is not what I expected, but I really appreciate what the author is doing by combing the biography of Mercury and history of HIV/AIDS... I really do believe that it doesn‘t take away the accomplishments of Mercury as a singer, songwriter and performer.

I love Freddie Mercury and was keen to learn more about him. I did learn more about the facts of his career, and the chapters on the AIDS were fascinating, but I didn‘t get a personal portrait of Mercury. I did appreciate the way the author attempted to provide insight as to how and why Mercury remained “in the closet” while also never hiding his flamboyance. However, the writing was clunky at best and downright contradictory far too often.

Enjoying this book, but the writing is nooooot great.

Cannot tell you how excited I am to read this biography of Freddie Mercury. Obsessed as I am with him, I‘m surprised this is the first time I‘ve read his bio! 👨🏻👑🎤 #FreddieMercury

Well this prompt made me think of Radio Gaga. “I‘d sit alone and watch your light, my only friend through teenage nights, and everything I had to know, I heard it on my radio”

I‘ve added this book to my TBR after seeing Bohemian Rhapsody which I loved 😍😍😍 Rami Malek was amazing. RIP Freddie 😢

After seeing #bohemianrhapsody I realized I didn‘t know all that much about one of my favourite singers #freddymercury. Time to pick up the best biography I could find! Have #audiobook as well

Listened to this to prep for seeing #bohemianrhapsody. This book was so good! Somebody to Love shows Freddie Mercury's rise to fame with Queen as well as the story of AIDS. The juxtaposition was just perfect because it gives background to what the 1980's gay scene was like during the epidemic and how Freddie was affected by it and in denial. This is the story that should of been made into a movie.

#MarchIntoOz #day27 #BadBoyForLove Today‘s prompt is an Aussie rock classic by Rose Tattoo, Angry Anderson‘s band.Angry definitely had that Bad Boy vibe, that chipped tooth smile was legendary.The tagged book is about another musical Bad Boy. Freddie Mercury loved his reputation as man who‘d try anything once.His lifestyle ended up being the thing that killed him unfortunately,his love for the bathhouses in NYC is probably where he contracted HIV.

This is a #blameitonlitsy purchase. My 15 year old daughter loves Queen, and I was reading that this is more than just about his life; it's also about the rise of AIDS in America in the 80s. (Thanks @Lizpixie ! I saw your pic of this book and was immediately on Amazon to order it. Can't wait to read it😆) #thatcovertho
