Yeah, it's really good, definitely worth a read and more intelligent and better written that the majority of Mac books. It's more about the music scene and the reasons why Rumours was able to become such a huge hit rather than the drama within the group (although of course that is documented). It's pretty fascinating, especially since most of the factors that made it a hit are pretty much missing in music today.
I would totally recommend it if you want a non-gossipy, factually based book. The fact that Carroll actually interviewed people for the book rather than fill it with quotes from magazine articles counts a lot too, I think.
