An excellent read for any and all readers! Author comes at you with both barrels and knocks you out of your shoes! Great job fleshing out all the characters. I give this book FIVE stars! Definitely recommend!

No Way Out But Through is a heartfelt, honest memoir that blends faith, music, and the gritty reality of transformation. Kent Maxson doesn’t sugarcoat his journey—instead, he shares his ups and downs with vulnerability and clarity, using songwriting as both a metaphor and a tool for healing. I really appreciated how the book felt both personal and universal at the same time. Reading it reminded me that sometimes the hardest seasons of life are the ones that shape our most beautiful songs.

Whew—this one got me right in the feels! 💥🎶 I started reading and thought, “Okay, cool, a book about songwriting,” and then BAM—tears, chills, the whole shebang. Kent Maxson doesn’t just tell his story—he sings it straight into your soul. It's raw, it’s real, and it made me want to pick up a pen and write my own life song (bad rhymes and all). If you’ve ever hit rock bottom, stared at the ceiling, and wondered what the heck is next—this book is your jam. 🎸🙏🔥💛
