I read it - it's got some good stuff in it. He's mostly positive about DER. My only critique is the writing style. He uses a lot of lines from songs to tell the story, sometimes stringing them together, and it gets to be a little bit much at times. I was wishing he would just tell the story straight, sometimes. But basically a good, short read.

Ruferino,
I just started reading the book today. I have read 38 pages so far and find the writing style is a little odd. But, I get the impression he is trying to keep it "real " and maybe weaving lines from songs within the story allows him to do that. So far, I like the book.

I finished the book and really enjoyed it. It confirmed some things I suspected , provided me with new information and filled in some pieces of the Temptations narrative I always felt were missing.
