looks like it's really just a re-hashing of the same old interviews and quotes, all of which he takes at face value. He doesn't appear to dig behind the public persona or have gotten any insights from anyone close to her (which Im sure he couldn't, because I think she clamps down pretty hard on anyone close to her telling any stories but the ones she wants to tell).
I think a good biography goes behind the mask and goes for more than just what the performer wants to portray. Not that it needs to be nasty or mean, but just honest. I love Stevie and she is more honest in a lot of her interviews than other celebrities, but she's very smart about her image and she's very controlling of her image. Getting a more realistic picture would be more interesting.
