Reviews

Written with respect and admiration, Mirror in the Sky analyzes Stevie Nicks's music with care, noting how it expressed the sentiments of a generation. * Foreword Reviews * Morrison's extensively researched biography does not shy away from Nicks's battles with addiction and emphasizes how as a woman musician, she has had to work harder and be better than the men around her. Nicks fans will appreciate Morrison's care in the details of her songwriting and the song production. * Library Journal * [Morrison's] narrative centers on Stevie's remarkable gifts as a songwriter, musical artist, and visionary, which have been historically downplayed by journalists and even her musical partners. Delving into the 'fandom,' Mirror in the Sky is refreshingly different from past books on Stevie Nicks. * Stevie Nicks info site *
