5 out of 5 stars Addictive!   August 7, 2007

Wow, what a great read! I absolutely adored this open and frank autobiography. I never knew Jack Osbourne had been through so much in just 21 years. The book gives a great insights into jacks upbringing, his personal life and his relationships with his parents and siblings. He really opens up in this book and I was unable to put it down. He admits his problems and addictions and realises where he went wrong in life, thankfully being only 21 he was able to turn all this around and rectify his actions. Jack has a lot to say and I was only too happy to keep reading!

This is a belting read and very highly recommended; it was pretty hard to put down. For a guy who had everything at his finger tips he has had it pretty tough. His writing style is easy and even though we are worlds apart, I could relate to his pain and his demons. Well worthy of a 5 star rating.

'21 Years Gone' is a surprisingly good read. Jack comes across as funny, intelligent and witty at various points in the book and you realise that the 'bratty' image that he is renowned for may well have been any normal teenage phase that was unfortunately put on TV for all to see. His stories of growing up around Ozfest and other tours are very funny and hard to imagine a young kid experiencing and his frank and brutally honest account of his addiction is a little wearing at times, but interesting never-the-less. I agree with other reviewers here that say this was brought out too soon. I really enjoyed the adrenaline junkie and extreme sports part of the book, but this was sadly too brief, a few more years would have been a bonus in the overall story. Although Jack has had a busier and varied life than many, 21 is still too young for an autobiography, however funny or interesting it may be. I guess the short 200 or so pages reflect this. There are two great colour plate sections with serious and funny shots in equal measure. Overall, this is an engaging book, that will keep you turning the pages, but if you want true stories of sex, drugs and rock n roll try Anthony Kiedis' book which I found to be a better read. A worthy four star read, good but not excellent.
