Not what I was expecting-in a good way!,
This review is from: This Is Gonna Hurt: Music, Photography and Life Through the Distorted Lens of Nikki Sixx (Hardcover)
When I first received this book, I was perusing through it like a child with a new toy. At first I was taken aback by the images that Nikki had photographed. However, as soon as I read the first page I was hooked! Nikki looks at things a little differently than others; a way in which many of us need to look at the world. Artistic, left of centre but most of all spiritual, Nikki's visions and thoughts are inspirational. A must read for anyone wanting to expand their horizons and glimpse the world that really lays in front of us.

Not bad but...,
This review is from: This Is Gonna Hurt: Music, Photography and Life Through the Distorted Lens of Nikki Sixx (Hardcover)
Nikki's second book is not bad but not as good as The Heroin Diaries.This book will show you his twisted way of seeing things. Fans should appreciate.
