Customer Reviews

A must read for Good Charlotte fans!

I thoroughly enjoyed reading "The Story of Good Charlotte", the 2003 "unofficial and unauthorized" biography by Doug Small (Omnibus Press). Rather than some of what I've read about GC that seems to have been written for a blurb in a pre-teen magazine, this 64-page book is very well written from beginning to end. The author hasn't "dumbed-it-down" for his readers. Yet, it's still easy to read and flows well from chapter to chapter. The author also pays close attention to details providing specific dates, names, locations, venues, and so on related to the band and their history. Because of the author's excellent attention to details, it would seem to me that this book was written by a true music fan, if not a follower of the band. There are six full color photos in additions to dozens more black and white photos. I highly recommend this book to any Good Charlotte fan!

good charlotte is the BEST!!

i just bought this book yesterday and i read it all in one day..there were alot of things in there that i didn't even know about them and i have been a big fan of GC since their first cd came out.i don't think that this book is targeted to "new fans or old fans" actually it is not targeted to anybody..there a lot of things in this book that even people who been fans for a very long time of GC even knew about..i am so HAPPY that this book focuses more on the Madden twins..because first of all, they are the ones who started good charlotte, so they should have the spotlight. the one thing that disapointed me was that there isn't enough pages..there were only like 94 pages..they should have made the book longer.

I enjoyed this book. Although it focused more on Benji and Joel more than the others. It didn't mention anything about Chris. Well his name and there new drummer. But i really like this book and i liked the pictures!

GREAT

The book is great so all you haters shutup because your all jealous that Good Charlotte rocks and your all a bunch of losers who have nothing better to do than complain. So get a real life. try to prove your better than Good Charlotte!

Great!

I really liked the book. It had some great pictures (even though most were in black and white) and some interesting facts along with a story about how they got to be where they are now. If you are a good charlotte fan, you should grab this book up today! Keep Representing!! :D
