so-soIt wasn't until the end that I realized this was an unauthorized biography. There were so many parenthetical statements throughout the book that I found them to be annoying, but I learned a lot about Stevie Nicks and her songs! I wish she would write a memoir.
pickThis biography tells the comprehensive story of Stevie Nicks and all of the people close to her. Only knowing Stevie through her music, I learned so much about her. The author spends a large portion of the book detailing how Lindsey Buckingham and Stevie Nicks joined Fleetwood Mac, the relationships between members, their music, and time on tour. I included some cool You Tube videos in my blog post.

I needed something different and Stevie is always a source of inspiration for me.
pickMild pick. I can‘t say I learned anything earth shattering about Stevie Nicks‘ time in Fleetwood Mac and after. I pretty much already knew the broad strokes of most of the inter-band drama and Stevie‘s journey with drug addiction. The most out-there fact I did learn was that Stevie Nicks was a Twi-Hard and even wrote songs in the 2000s inspired by Twilight. Overall, I enjoyed the peek into 1970s-80s music industry but wasn‘t overly impressed.
Week Three totals for #LittenListen. The only audiobook I finished was the tagged, a biography of Stevie Nicks (review TBD), but I got extra points for #CuriousCovers (Woman), finishing a square on my #BookSpinBingo, and June holidays (Road Trip Day). I have some shorter books I am planning on sneaking in during the last 10 days.
@aperfectmjk I am keeping a running total, so the 845 points are everything I‘ve accumulated so far.
#CuriousCovers Day 14: Woman
Started listening to this yesterday for #LittenListen, but didn‘t realize it also fit for the cover prompt also! I love Fleetwood Mac and have consumed a lot of documentaries and videos about them, so looking forward listening to the full story.
Just got this in the mail. So excited!😊☺️📚.
Nothing makes a day better like a book delivery. Can‘t wait to read these three.
First book of school shutdown. #teachersofLitsy #stayingin
Once again I‘ve been caught with my pants down after the start of the #24B4Monday #readathon in my time zone. The past few days have been pain flare ups all round so I‘m playing catch-up on Litsy. This is a very hopeful #TBR #stack with a few #NFNov choices in there as well, though there‘s another 9 library reservations the hubby is picking up tomorrow which includes more non-fiction. I‘m starting officially now with the rest of Loch Of The Dead.
pickThe first book I've read about Stevie Nicks and it won't be the last.
Interesting biography about the Fairy God Mother of Rock.
Read all The Runaways, Suzi Quatro and Debbie Harry book(s).
Now starting on Stevie Nicks (my first book on her)
Almost filled my new #TBRcart already, but I still have some room if I reorganise the lower shelves a bit. Lots of choice of genres for this weekends #24in48 #Readathon ranging from true crime to SciFi and everything in between (except soppy romances🙅🏻♀️) Can you see anything you‘re either dying to read or have read & would highly recommend? Who‘s joining me this weekend? 🙌
#BookMail Pt2 Really envying all you winter littens, 43C(109F)here in Sydney today with a week of the same in store🔥Even with ducted air con I‘m struggling🥵The book is Stevie‘s biography by the author that wrote Hammer Of The Gods, the infamous Led Zep book that had “the fish incident” detailed for the first time. His books pull no punches so this includes Nicks struggles with addiction & her failed relationships.
pickThis is so good !! Really enjoying it ❤️
bailedI tried. Stevie Nicks is one of my favorites. I have been looking forward to this book for quite some time. Finally, after several months, It moved to the top of the hold list. Alas, I am not enjoying it. I‘ve read the first chapter which takes you all the way to Stevie Nicks meeting Mick Fleetwood, not a spoiler. I‘m returning it to the library. Perhaps, I will continue to read is the future.
Everyone wanted to be like Stevie. #witchywoman
I love #giveaway surprises and I love Fleetwood Mac!
bailedI love Stevie Nicks, but I bailed. This couldn't keep my interest. Maybe because I listened to it on an audiobook. Maybe a physical copy would be better.
New book alert 🙌 need to read it now! 🌟 #stevienicks #golddustwoman #stephendavis #biography #hardback #newbook #preorder #books #readingbooks #reading #booksarelife #bookaddict #blog #AmReading #bibliophile #booklover #GoodReads #bookworld #mondaymotivation
so-soThis book is not authorized and is basically a compilation of publicly known information about Ms. Nicks. It reads like a fans perspective on her. If you're a fan ( as I am. I always wanted to twirl in cool outfits), you'll enjoy it, if not why would you bother? It's not especially well written and this is a flattering, non-objective view.
Hellooooooooo, evening reading. 🖤✨🎩
