Summary: The Best Madonna Book Ever Published
Review: Matthew Rettenmund certainly has done his research. Encyclopedia Madonnica is the most informative book about the Material Girl that has ever been published. After reading this book, you will truly know everything there is to know about the most famous woman in the world. Well-written and organized, it's also chock full of often hilarious tid bits and witty rejoinders. Mr. Rettenmund should do an updated version of this book, to cover the years 1995 to the present. If you love Madonna, then you simply must own this book, along with Michael D. Craig's "Who's That Girl? The Ultimate Madonna Trivia Book!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Pretty thorough
Review: Okay. So I bought this back when it came out in 1995. I remember reading it and thinking, "SO, there IS a fan out there that knows almost as much as I do about Madonna!" Although there is a lot of opinion expressed throughout the book and some missing detail, it is a book worthy of your shelf or coffee table. It may be outdated since Madonna has morph like fifty million times since this book was published. It still is a great book to ahve around, even if for camp purposes.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of the Finest Madonna Informational Tools
Review: There are few books out there that capture almost everything Madonna's done. Well, this book pretty much covers it. This is the finest of the field, and an absolute treasure to anyone who appreciates the Madonna persona.

Truth be known, it is horrendously out of date (1995) and features a few noteworthy "laugh-at-it-now" opinions: Madonna's "Evita" film that may never make it off the shelf. Well, she sorta won the Golden Globe; Madonna never winning a Grammy for work she's produced (Blonde Ambition does not count; she didn't produce). Well, she sorta got five Grammy's for RAY OF LIGHT.

Regardless, this book 1950's to 1994 is perfect for its time period. I've seen few compare, and THEY'VE been written quite recently.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Everything you want in a book but was afraid to read!
Review: This book burns up a commotion and lives to tell about Madonna! Very funny and engaging. The book is what it is, a Madonna encyclopedia, with all entries listed in alphabetically order. And what are these entries? Basically almost anything and everything remotely connected either directly or indirectly to the Material Girl.<Ps....everything from "selllines"... "divorce"...,;impersonators", "hoax", "Lipsinka","parody", " to a whole list of Madonna's "firsts", this book is a treasure trove of Madonna infro and trivia. The length of each entry depends on the subject. On some, a quote is given, while others, like the infamous "Sex" book, juggernauts into six pages.

There is also a complete filmography and discography of Madonna in the back of the book. However, the only gripe I have about the book is it got some of the info on her singles wrong. It listed Keep It Together as a #7 song when it fact it peaked at #8.

However, this book only covers Madonna up till when the Bedtime Stories album just came out...
