Not a good read. Book is a collection of cut and pastes from articles and other sources. Ms. Simon was never interviewed for this publication and does not authorize. It was a list of recordings and people. Very little about her emotional and intellectual being or her profuse composition. No notes ,no references, no bibibliography. When Carley Simon is quoted, one never knows from whence the source. Very weak story line.
A person who reads is never bored, but rather entertains the ideas of the world. Reading is recreational, educational, ethical, inspirational, imaginative and artistic. It aids in the development of the mind and the spirit. The written word is one of our greatest inventions.
