Fame can be addictive. From his early days videotaping crazy skateboard stunts to starring in the blockbuster Jackass franchise, there was little that Stephen “Steve-O” Glover wouldn’t do for attention. Whether it was stapling his nutsack to his leg, diving into a pool full of elephant crap, or routinely risking death invading the private lives of sharks, lions, tigers, and bears, almost nothing was out of bounds. And as the stunts got crazier, his life kept pace.

Publisher's Summary
Grammy Award-nominated, platinum-selling musician Halsey is heralded as one of the most compelling voices of her generation. In I Would Leave Me If I Could, she reveals never-before-seen poetry of longing, love and the nuances of bipolar disorder.
In this debut collection, Halsey bares her soul. Bringing the same artistry found in her lyrics, Halsey’s poems delve into the highs and lows of doomed relationships, family ties, sexuality and mental illness. More hand grenades than confessions, these autobiographical poems explore and dismantle conventional notions of what it means to be a feminist in search of power.
Masterful as it is raw, passionate and profound, I Would Leave Me If I Could signals the arrival of an essential voice.
Book cover painting, American Woman, by the author.
Halsey, born Ashley Nicolette Frangipane, is a Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter and recipient of the prestigious Songwriters Hall of Fame’s Hal David Starlight Award. She lives in Los Angeles, California.

Baring her soul for the world
Halsey has achieved what she does in her songs on paper: bringing emotion to all who come across her work. The way she tells her story through poetry is Grammy worthy.

I would leave if I could
This audio book is an eye opener into halseys mind and life. Halsey is an open book and allows us all to read or listen to her story. Her words reached my heart and I understood her happiness and her pain. Halsey is a brave and a beautiful women with a big heart. Her book is like holding on to her broken heart and watching it trying to put itself back together when she has happy times but then watching her heart shatter and again watching the heart rebuild itself.

Absolutely Stunning
This was amazing. The absolute rawness of Halsey is there to be seen and heard. I also loved this Easter Eggs of song lyrics in the different poems. I am also so happy Halsey narrated it as well because it wouldn’t be as impactful.

It's a breathtakingly beautiful collection of poems. There's nothing groundbreaking about the actual words or metaphors or analogies used but it's deeply personal and intimate and you can hear it in the way Halsey has narrated it.
