Jeff wilcox: I was very excited to read this, and I'm glad I finally got a chance to. Dave Grohl is a very gifted story teller. Fascinating insights into his life before, during and after Nirvana. I was hoping that there would be in depth writing about the recording of the 2 Nirvana records, but he doesn't get into detail. I was curious to see what he thought about working with Steve Albini, but he doesn't get into that. I wasn't disappointed, but I'm still curious. Filled with stories that will make you both laugh, and maybe cry, it is written from the heart. If you're curious at all about reading this, I would definitely recommend it.

Emma GoodwinEmma Goodwin: An absolutely brilliant account of just some of the twists and turns of a rock legends life. A great read that captures you from start to finish. A window into an extraordinary life. If you are a fan it's must, if you are at all curious read it, if you aren't you will soon be both. Epic!

Liz Clark: Heartfelt, funny, sweet, interesting and well written. I thoroughly enjoyed this book. While I am somewhat familiar with Dave's music, I don't really know many of his songs but sharing his life through his stories was a fascinating and excellent read. I laughed out loud numerous times and he had me tearing up several times too. After reading this book I feel I know this man and I really, really like him. Thanks Dave, this trip has been lovely!

Paulo M.: David Grohl surpreende como um excelente contador de histórias! O livro começa em sua infância, passando pela adolescência e fase adulta. Não segue uma ordem cronológica, o que garante algumas surpresas na forma com que as histórias se encadeiam ao longo dos anos. É um excelente livro pra qualquer pessoa que goste de uma leitura leve e descontraída, e ainda mais recomendado pra os amantes de Nirvana, Foo Fighters ou músicos em geral. Uma ótima pedida também para presente! Recomendo!

Josh HendersonJosh Henderson: Dave’s gift to us was an adventurous ride to read! This book consists of sentiment, depth, authenticity, vulnerability, and is surprisingly humorous! At moments I found myself actually laughing which is something I rarely do while reading, it’s Dave’s comedic timing of conveying the hilarity of his experiences to the reader. At moments I also found myself very emotional and welling tears. This book overall is a treasure! I’ll admit, I’ve always typically focused on the “front man” of any band or group, neglecting the other members who are equally just as important; but Dave opened my once blind eyes. After reading this book, I now have a new profound acknowledgment and consideration of all individuals who make up a band. I’m 40 years old, I was around 10 years old when I first saw Kurt/Nirvana on MTV. His radiant blue eyes, shaggy blonde hair, scruffy chiseled chin, and iconic voice that would become an undeniable sound of an era. As a little boy I was intrigued by this man. My birthday is April 11, 1983, so I was just cornering my 11th birthday when I heard the infamous announcement from MTV News reporter Kurt Loder on April 8th, 1994. Kurt will forever hold a...

Beguiled By Books: I love reading because I love stories. That may seem like an obvious statement, but so many non-fiction books are recaps of isolated events or summaries of studies. I enjoy non-fiction (probably more than the average person), but my issue with memoirs is that, too often, they highlight the glamorous bits of the subject’s life, which doesn’t make for a great story. It’s the book version of social media. You want the ups and downs. You want to root for your main character, even if your main character is real and you know the ending already.
Books, whether fiction or non-fiction, are meant to be stories.
Enter Dave Grohl’s The Storyteller: Tales of Life and Music.
For the aforementioned reasons, I don’t actively seek out memoirs. But Dave Grohl has always seemed like a genuinely awesome guy, and his music makes its way onto every playlist I’ve ever made. A good bit of Dave Grohl’s music makes up the soundtrack to my life – so naturally, I wanted to learn about his.
Grohl takes his memoir and lays it out in five parts. He covers everything from:
his childhood and foray into music
the singular event that directed the course of...

Luanne Leonard: A very insightful book that, at times, reads like lyrics from one of their songs. He shares his inspiration, and how driven he was. He talks about manifesting his future. And we are the recipients of Dave's soul and song. Awesome book!
