    Beautiful Mess

    A Beautiful Mess 

    When I was told by Tina that there was a book being sent for me to review I thought, “ok, I've never reviewed a book but I will give it a try.”  I'll be honest, when A Beautiful Mess the story of Diamond Rio showed up it wasn't a book that I would have chosen for myself since I generally toward the likes of Tom Clancy and Jon Krakauer.  I was pleasantly surprised though.  I have been familiar with the bands work for a lot of years since country is one of the genres of music that i listen to.  Being a country fan isn't requisite for this literary piece though it does help in understanding where the band is coming from.  I found it a very quick and easy read.  The book discusses the origins of the band and touches on the paths taken by its six members in becoming the award winning band Diamond Rio.  It also talks about some of the trials and tribulations  that had to be overcome and almost lead it its demise.  After finishing the book I found myself having more respect or the fellows of Diamond Rio.  One thing that surprised me about this book was that it came with the option of a digital audio book download to have it read by the voices of the band.  I had never seen this option available.  Overall I would recommend this book to just about anyone because anyone and everyone.  I think it could appeal to readers far and wide because it is written in such an intimate way it is easy to understand that these are real people.  I give it two thumbs and toes up, five stars and the Family Full Of Opinions seal of approval.
