Biography & Memoir

The Heroin Diaries pairs Mötley Crüe founder Nikki Sixx with co-writer Rantz A. Hoseley to turn one year of private journal entries into a searing, illustrated memoir of addiction and survival. First released by Simon & Schuster in 2007, this hardcover edition preserves the original 208 pages beneath a vivid dust jacket that still pops on the shelf.

Inside, stark photos and hand-written lyrics pull readers straight into the 1980s L.A. rock scene without glamorizing the lows. The narrative stays raw yet hopeful, making the book a touchstone for music lovers, recovery readers, and pop-culture collectors alike.

This used copy is clean and tightly bound—no notes, dog-ears, or ex-library marks—though light foxing dots the cover and one page shows a tiny blemish. The dust jacket and illustrated pages remain bright, so the rock-and-roll visuals hit just as hard as the story.

A solid addition for fans of music biographies, true-life drug memoirs, or 1980s cultural studies.
