Today, Nikki Sixx is truly a changed man, yet he’s the same as always. Lots of creative energy, lots of the wise-ass in him still. It took him several more years to really quit everything, but he’s replaced drugs with his children and many projects including Sixx AM, the band that recorded the well received Heroin Diaries soundtrack, and Running Wild in the Night, a charity to help runaway kids through the Covenant House, and of course performing with a happier, cleaner Mötley Cruë
Reading the alternately somber, sick, and often humorous pages of Sixx’s book makes you want to reach out to Nikki Six and the rest of the Cruë. Depending on which passage you just finished, you may want to shake, slap, or hug them, but one thing is clear. The Heroin Diaries should do what the “cautionary tale” Reefer Madness film never could – scare the crap out of you.

ive allready read this book, and thought it was rediculously good and disturbing at the same time. but i have to say, if i hadnt read the book allready and only read your review,it would undoubtedly force me to go out and read this book. great work.
