Description
"Pamela Des Barres' second book is a memoir, but it reads like a novel, "I am the world's most famous groupie" - there are plenty of contemporary fiction writers who would envy a first sentence like that. Ms. Des Barres provided a full and lively explanation of her groupie status in her first book, "I'm With the Band." In "
'Take Another Little Piece of My Heart," she moves on to a chatty, entertaining account of what came next: a messy rock-and-roll marriage, problematic child rearing, serious turmoil within the substance-abuse set and a long string of comical career mishaps."

- By Janet Maslin at the New York Times
