"This book wasn't exactly what I was expecting when I picked it up. I wanted to learn about Janis Joplin, and I did. I learned tidbits of her life and her inspirations. But if you want to know more about the actual details of Janis's life, her bands, and what went on leading up to her death, pick another book. I am not the most intelligent person and this book really pointed that out with the vocabulary used."
"I actually read this because I was giving a report for History Class on her for college. It was an excellent book. Very in depth. Great pictures too."
