Welcome to Litsy!

I love Patti Smith so much
I finished this while sitting by the river in Savannah listening to Otis Redding and Clairo

Slow. I found it hard to connect with. I didn‘t know 80% of the people that were name dropped (and there were A TON), but being that this took place almost 60 years ago, it‘s not surprising. Just not my style! (36)
⭐️: 2/5

Beautifully written. I definitely enjoy Patti Smith's writing. Solid pick and Seren-cat approved!

Yesterday was long. Traveling for work. 4 hour flight + 5 hour layover + 2 hour flight = lots of reading time. Finished my audiobook, an ARC, and started a reread of the tagged book, which is excellent. I love Patti Smith's writing.

I had expected to devour this book, instead I read it rather slowly, it took me months to get through the middle part. It was interesting, but perhaps there were too many names I was unfamiliar with, and several times I found myself putting the book down and looking for other things to read. That said, Smith painted a vivid picture of life in NY as an artist, and the final chapters were especially heartbreaking.
