Hmm. Seems more like a dedicated fan gushing words onto a page. Nothing much to read here with mentions of some controversies but no opinion or in depth analysis. Could read as much on a wiki page.
I really enjoyed this book. Although not that detailed in some areas of her life, it was still an interesting insight into the assault of the pop charts made by this iconic aussie lass. I was a massive Neighbours fan as a teenager and the whole Kylie & Jason/Scott & Charlene love story. Never knew at that time they were an item for real. Obviously many years later both have since confessed to this but still this book only really touches on it from her perspective. I was hoping for more insight to be fair but heh ho. This book is a good overall summary of the Kylie Years, childhood-2002. A nice and light, easy read! 3/5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️
