Lindsay has got guts. That's what it takes to live an authentic rock and roll lifestyle like she has. Her story is an autobiographical page turner for sure. Every other memoir I've read from musicians is more about dropping names and connecting the dots to fame and power in the industry. Those of us who do it for real know that the people in our lives are important not for how they are known to the world, but how they are known to ourselves. Lindsay can be messy. Love is messy. This is my favorite book of 2025.
Lindsay Manfredi’s book unfolds like a hand-drawn map of survival. She traces the wrong turns of toxic love, the false exits of self-betrayal, and the long roads back to self-worth. The writing is stark and unguarded, shaped by the truth of survival. Each chapter stands as both a landmark and a lantern, lit by her honesty and hard-won clarity. What emerges is not a story of easy triumphs, but of persistence, reclamation, and the hard grace of choosing yourself. By the end, you’re not only reading her journey — you feel her urging you forward, with quiet strength, to chart your own.
Just finished listening to The Girl Who Cried Love. WOW!! This book is so amazing. Lindsay is so very honest about her life experiences. It takes a very strong woman to share these stories. Each chapter I found something I could relate to myself. Hearing the book read by Lindsay made it that more powerful. She doesn't hold back and that's what I love the most. This book can speak to each of us who have struggled someway in love. It has such a powerful message for us all. Go get your copy and PIVOT!
Listening to The Girl Who Cried Love was such an emotional and eye-opening experience for me. As Lindsay’s friend, I thought I knew most of her story, but this audiobook showed me there was so much more. Some of it I had seen with my own eyes, but other parts were completely new—and honestly, some of them were shocking. Hearing her speak about those moments in her own voice made the impact even stronger.
What I admire most is her honesty. She doesn’t hold back on the pain, the heartbreaks, or the mistakes. But she also threads in her humor and resilience, which is so true to who she is. She takes those raw, heavy moments and turns them into lessons about self-worth, healing, and learning to love yourself for real.
And it’s not just about relationships. Sure, her story speaks directly to anyone who’s struggled in love, but the deeper message goes way beyond that. It’s about breaking cycles, finding your strength, and picking yourself back up when life knocks you down. Whether you’re dealing with heartbreak, self-doubt, or any other personal battle, there’s something in here that will resonate.
I’m so proud of Lindsay for sharing this side of her journey. It’s brave, it’s raw, and it’s the kind of story that reminds you you’re not alone—and that change is always possible.
This book was incredible in all forms of the word. Lindsay is brutally honest about her lived experiences. It was both a hard read to being empathetically connected to her trials and tribulations, but also so compelling I didn't want to put it down. Can't help but root for her as she's personally learning her own mistakes, toxic relationships and still strive for a happier more fulfilling life.
Not only was she learning through her experiences and imparting her growth and knowledge, I couldn't help but see my own similar struggles, faults, mistakes and desires for growth that she also strives to fulfill.
The closing chapters of her story is a take no prisoners, no bullshit, but filled will empathy and mercy reflection on self-worth and what we should all want for ourselves and our relationships. Not only for her readers, but for herself. She holds a mirror up to herself and asks the readers to look into the mirror she's holding up for us too.
If you have any sense of empathy, there will be parts that feel like a gut punch. If you have your own relatable stories, there will be heavy moments that will sting too. By the last page though, you will feel rejuvenated and inspired. You'll be left wanting to love more, love harder, love smarter. Not only in your relationship with others, but most importantly your relationship with yourself.
