I first gave this three stars after listening to the audiobook which was an entirely fine production. I've read reviews that say the editor takes up too much space in the first third of the book, and I agree. After getting the hard copy from my library, I'm adding another extra star! The archival goods and eccentricities of Prince's personal writings add a more personal and tangible dimension to this semi-autobiography. The digitization of some of the photos and ephemera are so crisp it felt like I could pick them up off the page. I'd highly recommend the print experience in addition to or instead of the audio experience.
