• Review:  This phenomenal singer-songwriter, Janis Ian, had some sort of dark cloud following her in her life.  Perhaps it was the curse of being born with a genius IQ and the soul of an artist. The author narrated and her voice was mesmerizing. She is so open about her darkest moments and deepest struggles, both physical and emotional.  She is intellectually voracious, brutally honest about her emotional life, and also shares her experiences in the music world, which are fabulous.  Imagine sitting around jamming with Jimi Hendrix?!  Having Ella Fitzgerald ask where you've been because she is waiting for some new music of yours?!  This is an autobiography which is engaging, poignant, and inspirational.  Strongly recommend reading or listening to it!
