- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Because I love Fleetwood Mac as well as Stevie Nicks independently, this caught my eye. While it seemed a little hap hazard in the writing style, jumping from place to place, I did love finding out more about this woman that I admire and the band that I have loved since I was 8. Definitely worth a read.
