I Was just 15 yrs old when Girlschool came into my world.. they have been with me in both the good times and bad and I have never waived in my support of the band.
To loose someone as talented and inspirational as Kelly Johnson has created a deep sadness for many people including myself, my one wish in this world would have been to have met her in person.
So to have her memoirs to read I feel gives us a greater understanding to the person that she is/was and her legacy of music lives on everyday.
It broke my heart to read of the depth of her disease and I felt for the strength of her good friends around her which has given me a higher respect for these woman.. Its a fab book to read, I could not put it down. I only wish it was longer@!!! So cheers to Kelly, thank you for sharing your life with me in music and now book form. You are greatly missed and greatly loved... fan for ever..Pauline xx

As a fan of Girlschool since the very early 80's I am glad that Kelly's story has been printed.It is very funny in parts and incredibly sad in others but the love for and from Her many friends shines all the way through.Glamour is not always there being in a Rock and Roll band but She did what She loved.A short book but Kelly's writing reaches out and touches your heart with personal pictures and stories from Her friends .A lot was packed in to such a short life.As long as Girlschool exists then Kelly will always be there.
