I enjoyed Zoe’s book a lot more than this one.
When I skimmed through it I remember reading some tall tale that said Stevie had specific requests to not have African American limo drivers. As if trying to say that she's a racist. That's when I put it down and realized it was crap. And then seeing how Carly Simon denounced the book he put out on her, it made more sense.
IA that the Zoe Howe book was at least more reliable but I doubt we'll ever get an actual "good" book on Stevie since all the writers have to base it off of is her interviews and other accounts and things, all of which are pretty exaggerated and many of which contradict each other.
