As a Christian singer songwriter myself I was really looking forward to this book but it failed to do justice to Dolly, her faith and her songwriting skill. The book is written by someone who admired her but didn’t know her personally and it somehow misses the mark. The narrator has a very monotonous voice and makes for boring listening. I would get far more from Dolly’s own autobiography but I don’t think it is available on audible - I will check. I have returned the book on the grounds of the narrator though I really think it is as much down to the author. Very disappointing as so little is written about the faith of songwriters.

Not what I expected. A bit of a let down.
