This Is Gonna Hurt: Music, Photography And Life Through The Distorted Lens Of Nikki Sixx is all Nikki Sixx. It is a collection of compelling photography and stories that capture the rage, love, optimism, darkness, and determination that shape his work. It chronicles Sixx's experiences - from his early years filled with toxic waste, to his success with Motley Crue, to his death from an OD, and his eventual rebirth through music, photography, and love.

Love story, bad-ass rock tell-all, social commentary, family memoir, This Is Gonna Hurt offers the compelling insights of an artist and a man struggling to survive, connect, and find a happy ending - a search that fuels Sixx's being.

I've read literally tons of books. Usually any book I can get my hands on. This is Gonna Hurt was one of the best books I've ever read. Nikki's raw honesty and emotion was amazing. I related to so much of everything Nikki has been through, abandonment, drug addiction and heartache. I laughed, I cried, and I cringed at this book. Thank you Nikki for a little glimpse of what life can be like happy and sober<3

Yes many people think Sixx is an arrogant egotistical prick.. And yeah he was for many yrs.. I am glad to have watched as he got his shit together, and the Heroin Diaries helped inspire me to do the same ..I got this audio book and I have a hard copy also for the photography... I am glad I listened to the audio because it is good hearing your heros find themselves on different levels.. This book has helped me as much as th Heroin Diaries to start thinking of others and not too much about me.. Thanks Sixx and I really appreciate your honesty and the fact you have taken responsibility for you.. You are a great dude..

Once again Sixx has surprised me..

This is a book that IF your an addict and a musician )what a combo help us from our selves))can shift you back into gear with a clearer vision of a target and that means any target, not only did I spend time in Hollywood ( whiskey gazzarris rainbow trubidour)) during Nikki’s days but I got caught in the drugs as well, thanks Nikki for telling OUR stories. This book is a reader above readers.

Nikki is a vessel with a real experience
