Default Bon Jovi Book

I need some cheering up so I am going to buy me some Bon Jovi books.

So far I have found:

Bon Jovi

Complete Guide to the Music of "Bon Jovi"

BON JOVI LIVE

BON JOVI IN THEIR OWN WORDS

There are Jon ones too but I want Bon Jovi ones.

Does anyone have these books or know of them? The site I am buy them from doesnt give any info on them or pictures of the covers or anything. So any advice would be great!

Ive got

Bon Jovi Keep the Faith (I prefer this one)

Runaway.

Problem is with BJ books they all say the same thing I havent read anything new in these books they just keep repeating themselves.
If you read BJ articles ,interviews history pages online they will tell you what the books do.

I would be interested in reading a book the actual band wrote themselves.

I have in their own words, these are nice quotes from the bandmembers with some great pix in there.

Bon Jovi live is a short hystory and lot's of live pics.

I like in their own words.

An other good one is the complete guide to the music of Bon Jovi.

That is in fact one of the worst biographies I've ever read about the boys. It's more some sort of propaganda book then a true biography.

Salaam Aleikum,

I have six books so far,
I have in their own words, Runaway, Bon Jovi (by Neil Jeffries), Bon Jovi Live and Jon Bon Jovi. The Jon Bon Jovi book is the same style as the Bon Jovi live book, lots of full colour glossy photos and a short Jon biography, which focuses on Jons career.
I have the complete guide to the music of bon Jovi, but I hate this book!! Why does Mick Wall wrie a Bon Jovi book when he quite clearly hates the band!! He makes so many references to jon being a second rate bruce it makes the book quite boring and unreadable!
Probably my fave is Bon Jovi by Neil Jefferies, although it only goes up to around '96.
Next one I wanna get is All Night Long, any one know if this is any good??

Paul
