It’s quite an easy read and very intriguing to see the process he went through, his journey into rock-n-roll stardom and even his inner thoughts which could have very well led right up to or be hinting at his suicide.
Not often does a musician or anyone famous leave behind such an intimate example of their life for others to read and understand. He was quite an artist which didn’t care about being famous. He hated the attention but he loved music and he wasn’t going to give it up just because reporters were around. He details his drug use, his relationships, his daughter, and his struggle to live and strive in a world full of negativity and change.

I re-read this now as a supplementary piece to [b:Heavier Than Heaven: A Biography of Kurt Cobain|1149440|Heavier Than Heaven A Biography of Kurt Cobain|Charles R. Cross|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1348289083l/1149440._SY75_.jpg|1136908].
One cannot review something as deeply personal as these (select) writings. Word on the street is that Cobain didn't want these to see the light of day, but Love made the decision to have them published.
We are judging if we rate. Just feel the words and cherish them as they are private thoughts and plans and feelings -- unguarded in a way that most readers are unfamiliar with, but are likely to practice for themselves.
