RaveEntertainment Weekly... an exegesis of empathy: how it took root within [Carlile], the ways it\'s dictated her relationships, its role as the engine driving her songwriting. The same things that make her music so remarkable can be found in her prose: If you\'re a fan of Carlile, you already love this book ... Carlile is reluctant to simply recount one milestone after another, instead offering through-lines that generate connections ... Even the book\'s structure is sneakily sharp, with each chapter followed by lyrics to relevant songs .. Carlile writes in a voice that\'s earthy, frank, endearingly dorky, and open-hearted ... She\'s generous with her faults and generous to them.
