Neon Angel

A Memoir of a Runaway

By: Cherie Currie, Tony O'Neill - with

Narrated by: Cherie Currie

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.

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.

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.

FANTASTIC!!!!!!

Cherie narrates in the most expressive and powerful way. Loved every second. Must listen to book.

beautifully raw

I like everything. I actually cried in some parts.I think the parts that were hard to hear and went into great detail needed be said..I also like that she updated this story in 2020. it was real hit me hard in the heart kind of book.

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.
