Alison Pink (7 KP) rated Johnny Cash: The Life in Books

Jan 15, 2018

Wow, just wow! I got this book for Ken for Christmas 2 years ago. After going to Nashville & seeing all the famous country music sights, I had to read this book. Cash was so much more than anyone realized, even me. I won't proclaim to be an expert before reading this & im still not, but what an eye opening account of his life. He was so incredibly blessed & yet hurt at the same time. He was a living breathing contradiction. And what a fascinating contradiction he was. This book is so well written it is easy to fall in to & to completely forget that you are reading about a real person.

Only Surpassed by Its Sequel

Suikoden, and the series that it spawned, is one of my favorites. Here, you play as the son of an imperial general who, by a matter of circumstances, becomes the head of the rebellion. Collect 108 characters in multiple sidequests--a pretty ambitious effort for the time. But what really makes Suikoden stand out from the pack of JRPGs of the 90s is its story. Suikoden doesn't flinch away at the harsh realities of war and what it can do to a country, family, and individual.
