“There is inspiration in the idea of imperfect people helping each other find the way back on course.

I’m not going to post every reader review (although I am grateful for everyone who took the time to respond). But this one made me choke up. Thank you, Mary, whoever you are.

Hold Me Down
by Clea Simon (Goodreads Author) 
Mary‘s review Sep 03, 2021
really liked it
HOLD ME DOWN by Clea Simon is not my normal type of reading, grittier than my usual, and I don’t relate easily to the music scene, and yet . . . and yet . . . I came to care about Gal and her band, felt a bit dizzy at the back and forth in time, the ups and downs in career, and found I could relate to bad decisions, regret, and efforts to put things right, or as close to right as possible. This was not an easy read, a bit like trying to see across a dim and smoky room, but there is inspiration in the idea of imperfect people helping each other find the way back on course.
We are each of us angels with only one wing, and we can only fly by embracing one another. 
Luciano De Crescenzo
