Review: This book was so horribly written. I read it when it first came out so now isn't a good time for me to write a review (years later) but I just found this place to write reviews. This guy has a lot of facts wrong - first of all he says that Ani married her drummer, Andy Stochanski, when she really married her sound engineer, Andrew Gilchrist! Geeze, how could you get that wrong, yeah I know, Andy and Andrew may be similar, but if you know anything about her you'd get at least that fact straight! And some of the interpretations of songs were wrong too. Not that I'm an expert on knowing what Ani was thinking, but I've seen a direct quote from her saying that in her quote "Better cover my mouth cuz I coveted another man's wife", she isn't saying that she slept with the man's wife! Contrary to popular belief she's saying that she betrayed the wife (coveted her) by sleeping with her husband. This was actually stated by Ani that that's what she meant - and it was Andrew Gilchrist who she slept with (he was married when she met him). Anyway, it's poorly written. I see that he's written at least one or two more books about her now, I can hardly believe it! I wouldn't waste my money.
