Summary: Don't buy it! Just say no!
Review: Ok, So like all of the other huge madonna fan's like me, I have read every madonna book i can get my hand's on. And Was really exicted about this book when it came out. With all the press, hell it was on the cover of people magazine, I expected this book to be more reveling then the madonna unauthorized. What a waste, This book gave me abosultly no new information at all, The overanalyze thing can go somewhere else. And he screwed up so many fact's. And he jump's around to many time's
1) pic of madonna attending a prince concert, He claim's is his jimmy albright, no it's madonna's dancer from blonde ambition, like did he really think he could slide that by madonna fan's?
2) skip's and never return's to thing's, went striaght from sean penn to vanallia ice, like totally skipping over warren betty and toney ward, and only one page devoted to dennis rodmen and jfk jr, Hello the most fanasing romance of madonna's we all want to know about is that romance and only a page!
Don't waste your time with this book, he was just trying to make money of madonna. I give it one star because it does deserve that because of all the pic's it show's of her, most i have never seen before.

Summary: An OK biography
Review: One irritating fact over this biography, despite a few misspelled words in the text, was the repetition in one big way. OK... so Tiger Lillies are Madonna's favorite flowers. How many times does a biographer have to state that fact to make a point??? Overall this was an OK biography, however.I'm not a huge Madonna fan, but was curious regarding the hype over her career and this biography. She's had a few ballads I've liked in her career and they can be found mostly on one CD ("Something to Remember".)

Summary: Mistakes abound
Review: There are a lot of writing errors and problems with incorrect dates in this book. Morton also has a terrible style with no flow and too many commas.
As a Madonna fan I found that his sources were somewhat credible but that he reads too much into small events in her life. He also mentions events out of order, perhaps to tease but mostly to annoy.
Nice photo selections.

Summary: Not a total waste of time, but...
Review: This book has a lot of interesting tid bits and factoids about the life of Madonna, but as many previous reviewers have commented the writing is stilted, errors abound and the psychological mubo jumbo is annoying. The author seems to think he must beat us over the ehad with pop psychology connections to almost every incident he relates. Also, I haven't read tons of biographies, but the author seems to be incredibly detached from his subject, even for an unauthrized biography. I never got the feeling that he got to the true Madonna behind the public persona.

Summary: His research was mainly copying previous bios!!
Review: This book is apalling. I class myself as a fan of her music who knows a little about her life story, but i was amazed even i could find SO many inaccuracies in this book that i found it frightening. For example a. Morton states at one point that Hollywood execs were nervous about letting James Foley direct Who's That Girl as his previous experience was only directing 'Papa don't preach', 'Live to tell' and 'Open your heart' ( p143 ) FACT- James Foley directed Sean Penn in 'At Close Range' prior to any of those vids.
ANYONE WHO HAS ACCESS TO THE INTERNET COULD FIND THIS INFO IN ABOUT 5 MINUTES FLAT. Whats even more amazing is that in the Videography section in the rear the correct video directors are named ( J.B Mondino for 'Open'). b. Morton states that it was 18 months between Guy Ritchie and Madonna first meeting and their wedding ( p226). Hello--so there are 18 months between summer 1998 and Dec 2000? There are so many inaccuracies like this that are even beyond what a decent proofreader should pick up. Also there are literally lines lifted from other bios that are not even acknowledged. And as for his analysis of Madonna, well Mr Morton, don't give up the day job. On second thought , please do.

Summary: Dont waste your money!!!!!!!!!!!
Review: This book is simply a rehash of every article you have ever ead about Madonna. It jumos all over the place, I have really tried to read it, but I got half way through. I am returning it to the store i bought it from tommorow and buying something else to read. The Mark Bego book is GREAT if you are a fan Buy that one!!

Summary: ...
Review: This book is so poorly written it's shocking. I lost count of the factual errors, there were at least one on every page. Many of the dates and "facts" are erroneous, he places her in Miami for Thanksgiving 1993 when in fact she was in Australia on tour. One of his so-called 'sources', ex-boyfriend Jimmy Albright, is shown in a photograph with Madonna but guess what? It's not him, it's one of her dancers from the Blond Ambition Tour. If he can make such an obvious mistake like that then how much of the rest of the book are you supposed to believe? His psyhcoanalysis of Madonna is tiresome to say the least. How can he make such judgments about her character having never met her? Wait for Madonna's own memoirs.

Summary: I loved the book
Review: This book proved to be a completely worthy read. I could not put it down for one minute and was up the entire night, my nose buried in this book. Andrew Morton is an excellent writer. If you have already read every other book on Madonna out there, you probably don't need to read this one. But I highly recommend it to those who haven't. There's nothing cheap or sensational about the way Morton analyzes Madonna. He doesn't resort to those tactics and the result is a highly fascinating read.
