Joan Jett Todd Oldham/Joan Jett and guests Hot off the release of “The Runaways” movie comes the (kind-of) autobiography of Joan Jett. It’s better served as a very well designed coffee table book than deep look into the life of the “female Chuck Berry.” Joan writes a bit here and there and offers a little more insight into relationships with her former Runaways band-mates and manager Kim Fowley as well as long-time solo manager Kenny Laguna. It’s not much anyone not already familiar with Joan didn’t really know. There’s no bombshells dropped regarding her sexuality or anything having to do with it. Then again to her credit, there doesn’t really need to be. She has always strived to be androgynous in a male-dominated game, and her track record speaks for itself. The strength of this book is Oldham’s layout and the many, many revealing and captivating pictures of Joan from the time she was a child before the leather, through her teen years, solo start and up to now. It’s an extremely quick read, very nice to skim through, but not at all exhaustive. Kind of like a lot of Joan Jett songs – short, rocking, sexy and to the point. 8/10 – B.J. Lisko
