Download or read book Boys Keep Swinging A Memoir written by Jake Shears and published by Omnibus Press. This book was released on 2018-03-28 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Jake Shears – world famous singer, songwriter, actor and LGBTQ+ icon – comes this wide-eyed and determined coming-of- age story; an unforgettable literary account of a man overcoming the odds and finding his true voice. Long before hitting the stage as the lead singer of the iconic glam rock band Scissor Sisters, Jake Shears was Jason Sellards, a teenage boy living a fraught life, resulting in a confusing and confining time in high school as his classmates bullied him and few teachers showed sympathy. It wasn’t until years later, while living and studying in New York City, that Jason would find his voice as an artist and, with a group of friends and musicians who were also thirsting for stardom and freedom, form the band Scissor Sisters. First performing in the smoky gay nightclubs of New York, then finding massive success in the United Kingdom, Scissor Sisters would become revered by the LGBTQ+ community, sell out venues worldwide, and win multiple accolades with hits like Take Your Mama and I Don’t Feel Like Dancin’, as well as their cult-favourite cover of Pink Floyd’s Comfortably Numb. Candid and courageous, Shears’ writing sings with the same powerful, spirited presence that he brings to his live performances. Following a misfit boy’s development into a dazzling rock star, Boys Keep Swinging is a raucously entertaining memoir that will be an inspiration to anyone with determination and a dream. ‘This is a beautiful, fascinating memoir by a beautiful guy who has lived a fascinating life – and he has the insights and receipts to prove it. Wonderful!’ - Dan Savage

"Just when I thought I had it figured out...BOOM, I was wrong!" "This book is definitely not for the faint of heart." "Everything seems to follow the normal pattern of a suspense/thriller novel, until it absolutely doesn't!" "I was riveted to the story." "So many twists and turns ... absolutely did not see that ending coming!" "Wow. I literally could not put this book down. I was shocked by the ending, and I want to read again just to make sense of it all." "I was surprised of the ending and happy to see that there is room for a sequel possibly in the future. I highly recommend this book for an amazing thriller read that surprises the reader." "Really great book. Can't recommend it enough. Keep in mind 1)you won't be able to put it down 2) you will need a friend to talk to about it." Excerpt from Midwest Book Reviews: "Jeff Berney knows how to craft a suspense story that is as compelling as any Alfred Hitchcock could have shaped. As events in multiple lives move forward in a chess match-style of intrigue, readers will not only find the story replete with surprises, but should be advised that if it's chosen for late night reading, dawn might arrive before the story's completed."
