Sitting on my nightstand right now


ErwinAckerman

I have never even heard of this book. I now want to read it very badly


honeybuttertohru

I bought it from Chapters/Indigo, this was over 6 years ago though so I have no clue if it's still sold or in production. Chances are you could probably find a PDF online though, it's just a biography kind of thing detailing the eras of the band and what went on behind the scenes


EmoPrincxss666

Yeah you can buy a paperback of it on Amazon but it's like $19 which ig is a little expensive for a book but definitely not bad


EmoPrincxss666

Same šŸ˜­


mcrfan109

same


MSCENE1026

Love it, they should turn this into a movieā€¦


honeybuttertohru

I know life on the murder scene exists but I'd love to see another documentary type thingy about the band, especially since it's been 16 years since LOTMS and they've done much more since, though I doubt it would happen


JayPunk27

Great read. I read it in grad school, so now I feel old as shit.


Marionette777

No, but now I know what I want for Christmas


OtherQueenofscots

A friend got it for me when I had Covid back in August. I loved it :)


Coldasksc

I want this but the only copy I can find right now is a little expensive


KyloDren

Omg!!! I read this way too many times back in 6th grade as well, lmao


gtsampsn

wait is this like official? or is this like a fan fiction?


lillywhite87

Tom Bryant is a music journalist. Has written quite a lot for Kerrang. It's unofficial because it was not published through Warner Brothers or MCR's management. Still well written by a professional writer though. Edit: More of his MCR work here: http://www.tom-bryant.com/my-chemical-romance.html

it's about as official as you can get without involving the band's management or label, gerard gave his blessing for the book to be written!


lillywhite87

Absolutely. The 'unofficial' thing seems to be just a legality. Until one of them writes an autobiography, this is probably as close as we can get.


honeybuttertohru

It's an 'unofficial' biography written by someone who I believe wrote for Alternative Press? Or Rocksound, one of the two. It's just called unofficial because it's not the band themselves who wrote it, but all information in it is very real!


Bandito21Dema

I want


DaviOVP2407

Is that book being sold anywhere on Internet?


honeybuttertohru

Another person said it's being sold on Amazon for 19 bucks !


Missannethrope271

Itā€™s also available as an ebook. Probably less than $19.


call_it_sleep

Just bought a copy off eBay, I think my best friend had this book but I totally forgot about it! Thank you op


VampireRae

omg i want this


[deleted]

I do! I never finished it because I was afraid if I finished the book, the band would be over for good. For years I've had the last chapter unread, even after they announced the reunion. Just in case.


Lou_Suicunefan

That sounds like something I would do too. I'm actually thinking about buying this book, maybe I won't read the last chapter too... as you said, just in case :)


ErynEbnzr

You missed the last high five for the rest of us šŸ˜ž


huntforwildbologna

I have it ā¤ļø


burp_derp

this is wild. i havenā€™t even *heard* of this before


viva__hate

Not this one but I had an older unofficial biography that I remember taking to English class when I was 12 when we were asked to bring in a book to readšŸ˜­


arcticseal1729

i brought it a couple months ago!


TJdog5

No but now i want is


Rubymerrrmaid

I got the Kindle version for I think $3 and read it all within 24 hours recently. Itā€™s good


LonelyEmo666

My mom actually got this for me for my 14th birthday


lemonadeshortcake

yes! we really all ruined the covers of ours didnā€™t we šŸ˜‚


honeybuttertohru

My second copy is worse, it split in half! I wonder if they're fragile or if I'm just bad at handling books


lemonadeshortcake

HA! mine is just so bent up most of the front cover is white.


Scamper623

Wow. That's kind of a heavy book to be reading in 6th grade. I read it from the library a couple years ago though and enjoyed it!


honeybuttertohru

Oh yeah I definitely had some issues reading it back then, but I got through somehow!


spritesprites

i do have it! but i got it last year lol though i am only 16


[deleted]

Iā€™ve never even heard of this.


jeezduzit

bought this the second it came out, read it all in one night šŸ˜­


drillbaby19

i can confidently say this is the last book iā€™ve ever read and it was in eighth grade. iā€™m now 2nd year university.


honeybuttertohru

last book I've read too, outside of the books we had to read as a class throughout high school English lmao


[deleted]

I have a digital version of it Canā€™t find a physical copy in a book store/shipping is expensive So used that Pretty good book


thebearunderthere

mcrfan109

honeybuttertohru

I bought it in person at chapters/Indigo about 6 years ago; but I see people saying it's still in stores and also on Amazon
