From the author of The Best Kind of People and The Spectacular comes a sharp, emotional novel about lies, liars, and the people who love them.

I thought that you interviewed the Alarm für Cobra 11 star from 1999
What Ever Happened to Sophie Wilder profoundly touched me. Thank you, Mr. Beha! Thank you!
Ok this is the greatest thing I’ve ever seen. Just started “Self Destructive” and I’m the biggest Craig Finn fan. Thank You…
❤️❤️
the crowd that might be attracted to this might also be the crowd unable to understand what is being said and given up early on - that is the only way i can explain away the sub 2000 views
A living legend in legitimate literature world over !
it was a brilliant read , her writing style is magnetic and captivating , cant wait for more of her work.

I can't f#cking believe I am the only one commenting in TENS of videos on KV career.
NO other Rock Memoir Book made me feel so HURTED by another person life. Finishing Chapter 2, I felt so SAD for her, I stopped reading for one week. Finishing Chapter 6, I felt ASHAMED for being a man. Very few books get me so DISTURBED.
What an insightful conversation ! Jia Lynn Yan, you are wonderful !! 👍😊👍😊👍
So glad to see you. Viva greenlight viva fort green
