Editorial reviews

Editors Select, October 2013 - I admit: I swooned over Corey Feldman as a kid in the '80s and '90s. The bad-boy attitude, raspy voice, the hair - paired with his undeniable charm - skyrocketed him up the Hollywood ladder and into international heart-throb territory by age 15. In this incredibly personal memoir, Corey tears down that veneer and shares what life was really like for him all those years, from his start in the business at age 3 up through the loss of his best friend, the \"other\" Corey, Corey Haim, as an adult. As I listened to Corey tell his story, I was shocked, disturbed and sickened at the abuse he suffered - emotional, physical and sexual, which led to his drug addiction and several suicide attempts - so much so, that at times, I found myself pausing to calm down and reach for more tissues. The writing is lucid and well-paced - and Corey's raw and emotional telling makes for an unbelievably intimate listen. Highly recommended. —Jessica, Audible Editor

Publisher's Summary

A deeply personal and revealing Hollywood-survival story.

Lovable child star by age ten, international teen idol by fifteen, and to this day a perennial pop-culture staple, Corey Feldman has not only spent the entirety of his life in the spotlight, he's become just as famous for his off-screen exploits as for his roles in such classic films as Gremlins, The Goonies, and Stand by Me. He's been linked to a slew of Hollywood starlets (including Drew Barrymore, Vanessa Marcil, and adult entertainer Ginger Lynn), shared a highly publicized friendship with Michael Jackson, and with his frequent costar Corey Haim enjoyed immeasurable success as one half of the wildly popular duo "The Two Coreys,"spawning seven films, a 1-900 number, and "Coreymania" in the process. What child of the eighties didn't have a Corey Feldman poster hanging in her bedroom, or a pile of Tiger Beats stashed in his closet?

Now, in this brave and moving memoir, Corey is revealing the truth about what his life was like behind the scenes: His is a past that included physical, drug, and sexual abuse, a dysfunctional family from which he was emancipated at age fifteen, three high-profile arrests for drug possession, a nine-month stint in rehab, and a long, slow crawl back to the top of the box office.

While Corey has managed to overcome the traps that ensnared so many other entertainers of his generation—he's still acting, isa touring musician, and is a proud father to his son, Zen—many of those closest to him haven't been so lucky. In the span of one year, he mourned the passing of seven friends and family members, including Corey Haim and Michael Jackson. In the wake of those tragedies, he's spoken publicly about the dark side of fame, lobbied for legislation affording greater protections for children in the entertainment industry, and lifted the lid off of what he calls Hollywood's biggest secret.

Coreyography is his surprising account ofsurvival and redemption.

An honest account of his life experiences

Corey Feldman has greatly narrated this audio book so well to the point where he even imitates the voice of people he has dealt with. I think his music sucks, he really should focus on being a writer. I think he would make a great novelist.

heartfelt and heartache autobiography

I really liked this book. I wasn't particularly a Corey fan, but his story has been in the media a lot surrounding the Hollywood Weinstein news and I was interested in hearing about his life and struggles. it was more than I expected and I was really taken in. an in depth, genuine tale told in a compelling and entertaining narrative about a truely loveable character. you can't help but like the guy, and feel terribly sorry for the pain and hurt in his life.

Amazing Read!

I have always been a fan of Corey Feldman. Stand By Me, Lost Boys and The Goonies are all favourite movies of mine.

Corey is an inspiration. Battling and defeating a massive drug addiction as well as openly speaking about his sexual abuse.

Awesome read and inspiring Narration - well done Corey for speaking your truth!

Such an eye opening book. Took me from laughing to crying - well written and well narrated. Was great to get a picture in my mind of Hollywood in the 80s. Great book, highly recommend 👏👏👏

Heartbreaking at times and at others uplifting.

A Fantastically written, truly honest autobiography. Refreshingly raw, a rollercoaster of emotion from start to finish. An inspirational story of finding himself at his lowest point and rebuilding a new and limitless future.

Probably not all true, but interesting!!!

I found this really interesting and gave a good insight into the real Hollywood/movie making. I thoroughly enjoyed it, even if parts of it did seem made up.
