About this listen

In this candid autobiography, Cherie Currie - the original lead singer of '70s teenage all-girl rock band The Runaways - powerfully recounts her years in the band, her friendship with guitarist Joan Jett, and her struggle with drugs.

An intense, behind-the-scenes look at rock music in the gritty, post-glam era, Neon Angel is a must-listen for anyone whose heart beats to the rhythm of David Bowie, Suzi Quatro, Nick Gilder, and the Sex Pistols, and for every fan of the movie it inspired: The Runaways, starring Dakota Fanning and Kristen Stewart as Cherie Currie and Joan Jett.

Tough Life

I have read so many Rock Autobiographies and she by far has been through ao much pain. If you want to hear a story of a Woman who has lived a hard life and then came out on top at then, then this is book to read. You Will definitely not be disappointed.

Great book!

As a long time fan of the Runaways, this was a must “listen” for me. Such an eye opening account of the band, it’s members, heart ache, heart break and triumph over it all.

wow!

you think you know their story because they were so famous but Cherie does such an amazing job narrating her own work that now I really feel like I've gotten to know, not just her, but all about that time.

A heartfelt and inspiring story that was moving

It’s hard to put into words just how moving and inspirational this story is. The delivery was truly from the heart, coming from a person who lived it. How Cherie overcame those hardships and challenges is awesome and inspirational. I’m a musician and really feel a whole new appreciation for being an artist, and realizing the power of humility, courage and feeling inspired to help others.

I wish the book could’ve lasted another 12 more hours!

I enjoyed everything about this book. Cherie’s narrative to her own story was soul touching this is the way audiobooks should be done. I was so emotionally wrapped up in the book it was listening to a best friend tell stories and I’d even occasionally talk back to her lol! Cherie if you ever read these reviews please put out another book! Listeners don’t hesitate on getting this book, you won’t be disappointed. Thank you Cherie for letting us in , it was worth the ride!!!♥️

Outstanding listen.

This book is not one that I would normally read but a friend of mine is friends with the author so I gave it a shot and I have to say it was absolutely riveting. Thank you so much for sharing your life experience with us. You are an inspiration and a inspiration and a great human being.
