Great read

The narrator's tone doesn't match the story at all. Carol Ann's story is so captivating and the narration doesn't do it justice. The book is really beautifully written - fun and heartbreaking. It would be difficult not to make some of the same choices Carol made being young and in love with a complicated, but sensitive and beautiful genius.

enjoyable

thought it was a bit trashy at first but by the end grew fond of carol and her storytelling
the narration takes some getting used to, but once you’ve listened for a while you forget that it’s a little robotic

Great Read

A beautiful love story and insight to the Rock and Roll world!! This was beautifully written and should be made into a movie!! If you love the 1970s this is for you!! Bravo

A backstage pass!

I was so obsessed with Fleetwood Mac, Lindsey Buckingham, and Stevie nicks when I was younger. This book is a must for fans that want to learn all about the underbelly of all their lives. I think the author does a great job at telling us about her life with Lindsey and the band and gives an honest account of the dysfunctional family the band was. It was a non-stop awesome,drug taking, fanciful, delusional world!

Was like being in the room with them!

Lived this book! Originally bought a hard copy when it first came out years ago; but was upset how my idols were being portrayed & pitched it. Now all these years later; I decided to revisit it after FM fired Lindsey last year right before their 50th anniversary tour. I now realize the author is telling the truth about the huge dysfunction & egos...which continue to this day. Enjoyed having this backstage pass into their heyday. Beautifully written & narrated.

Very Raw & Totally Honest about it all

Nothing was held back. A life renewed after years of Rock and Roll life, the good, the drugs, the people, the pain, bravery

Awesome

This book is the best I’ve read in a long time. Thank you. I wish Fleetwood Mac would get back together.

As a woman... I totally get this.

Never knew this side of Lindsey. I'm so sorry, Carole Anne, that you suffered for so long... and preserved your dignity, at the end.
I did the same.
I hope you're well-

Surprisingly Great

Never knew he had loves other than Stevie and his current wife. Obviously he did live her but seems to have been overshadowed by the breakup w Stevie. I had read that he never allowed himself to truly heal from Stevie as he jumped into another relationship and it does seem to be accurate. I’m sure he cared deeply for her but the fact he seemed to have neglected her seems off. I am glad she mad the choice she did and found her daughter again. She obviously loved him but lost herself in loving him too much it seemed. I am also glad he found live and a family with Kristen.

Lindsey Buckingham Serial Abuser of Women

An eye opening take on being in love with a famous, drug addled, narcissistic, jealous, woman beater. Money will keep everything covered up. It’s no wonder the band fired Buckingham from their final tour. I’ll never listen to their music the same. Wow! The narrator gets on your nerves vacillating between “my genius boyfriend” and complaints of Buckingham pulling her hair out, choking her, and sending her to the hospital! It sickens one to listen to her putting up with numerous instances of physical and emotional abuse.
