Amy Winehouse: The Biography 1983–2011

When I purchased this book I knew little of Amy Winehouse and had my own opinions of her life as offered to me by the media.On reading this book I learned of the tru tragedy of this amazing young woman's death.Amy's talent was amazing and I have become an avid fan of her music; now I have purchased all of her music and lament the miserable idiots who enabled her on that very destructive path.Well written and so sobering to read fact instead of tabloid rubbish.

Was written very well, not boring, kept my interest was hard to put down going to look for the author for more books, love Amy Winehouse, thanks

This is one of the better biographies of Amy. It is well detailed and follows throughout her life and successes throughout her music career. The book discusses her early life, fame and while it doesn't talk much about the last year of her life, it is a good biography of her life. I think that the book may have been in the process of being written when Amy died and the ending kind of tossed together, but the author does a good job of making it work. There are some photos in the book and the book chronicles her relationship with Blake a bit more than other biographies do. I would recommend it as there are biographies written about Amy, but I have only read two others worth reading. One is by her father Mitch Winehouse called "Amy, My Daughter" and the other one is called "A Losing Game" by Nick O'Shea that I would suggest as well.

There are several biographies on Amy, this being the first I have read. I plan on reading more after this to see if there is one that I like better. This was hard to read at times only because the writer has placed review after review after review from critics about her music, which is great to a point. By the end I was so over reading what THEY had to say about her. I want to know about her, not what countless (there are A LOT) reviews say about her personal life other otherwise. However, it does a good job at discussing her childhood life and how she broke into music after attending a couple of musically inclined schools in her youth. There is a chapter dedicated to her relationship with Blake. I enjoyed reading it because it was about Amy, but if the writer wrote any other biographies, even on someone I was interested in, I might steer away from them and look for one written by someone else.

I did not know about this biography until I searched Amazon. The book detailed her life and the pictures was awesome. The condition of the book was amazing, it looked like it was brand new, hot off the press.

I ordered this book because I love biographies. Shipping and seller were great. Book itself was in great condition. But the story is long and boring. Hard time keeping my attention.

Excellent book about a little girl who wanted fame and fell into a world of drugs and alcoholism when she was blinded by love.

Just like Judy Garland and some others, those with real talent suffer at their own hand. Concise telling; so if you are at all interested in Amy, this is a good and fast read.

I was curious to know the real story of Amy Winehouse’s rise and fall. Well written biography, with pictures added. Gave me some good insight on the true old soul, troubled artist and legend she was. A great, non-biased read on her life.

es como si estuviera leyendo una revista de chismes. no me gusta la manera como cuenta la historia, no sigue una linea del tiempo.

The book is non stop as was her fraught life. So much left to be done, sung. A one shot deal.

After her untimely death, I wanted to find out about herlife, so I ordered her book from amazon. In the shopsthey were selling it at full price, I could not believe how muchthey were selling it at amazon, When it came, I thought it would be an old secondhand copy. It was immaculate.It was well worth the read. I loved it, I would recomend itto anyone. Well done to Amazon.......

内容もよく大満足です。おすすめです。AMY好きは絶対満足すると思います。
