Publisher Description

Discover what it was really like during, and after, the summer of love - and how one remarkable woman survived it all to remain today as vibrant and rebellious as ever. Grace Slick was the original great rock diva. As the lead singer of Jefferson Airplane, which produced the classics White Rabbit and Somebody to Love, she was at the forefront of the '60s and '70s counterculture. Now, in her inimitable voice, she offers a revealing portrait of the complex woman behind the rock-outlaw image, and delivers a behind-the-scenes view of rock's grandest stages.

"Really liked this book . . . but then I always really liked Grace Slick. I always found her sarcasm to be endearing. Other than her relationship with Paul Kantner, I had no idea she slept with the other band-members(minus Marty Balin)until I read her story. She is very candid about her ongoing substance abuse problems and the problems it lead her into over the years. It was good to hear that she has maintained a wonderful relationship with her daughter, China Kantner. She was also very revealing about her broken marriage with Skip Johnson and how it affected her life. A good read for people that followed Jefferson Airplane and the rock-and-roll period of the mid-to-late 60's."

    " An interesting and surprisingly literate / well written book by the lead singer for Jefferson Airplane. Self absorbed, of course, and not as smart as she thinks she is, Slick is open about lovers and drugs and what it was like in the old days of psychodelia. "

    " Surprisingly engaging. I feel like this book captures the Grace Slick I've known through the rock press for years, and adds some besides. There's nothing here for the non-fan, but for those of us who grew up with Slick, there's plenty. I wish she didn't hate her old-lady body so much, or so vocally, but it was all interesting. Not nearly enough photos, but lots of background info. Well worth a read if you love her music. "

    " You know sometimes you get a book you can't put down, well this is the opposite. I had to force myself to keep reading it and wish I hadn't bothered. Bored me to death. "

    " Grace Slick has a very direct style of writing, which makes for a frank and somewhat prosaic read, but her life as been so interesting and full of noteworthy events this is still a fun book despite it's literary shortcomings. "
