Book Reviews of Patsy: The Life And Times Of Patsy Cline
Book Review: Could have been a better biography
Summary: 3 Stars
This biography of Patsy Cline is a good read, but certainly not a great one. After reading every word on every page of the first few chapters I found myself skipping alot of paragraphs that were too detailed about the genre of country-western music during the 1950's and 1960's. I skipped these portions of the book and didn't feel like I had missed anything important about Patsy Cline's personal life and career. Also, there is alot of repetition such as how plain spoken she was and how she told things like she saw them whether people liked it or not. This is said over and over and over again. While the background info on her family was interesting and did help me understand why Patsy was like she was, alot of the detailed info about the recording industry was unnecessary. This book could have been a lot better by simply leaving out some of the material and making it shorter. It can be a tedious read at times, but it is worth reading.Book Review: Repeat
Summary: 2 Stars
I find this book has lots of info that seems to come from another Patsy Book, rememebr to check the back cover on this book, it will tell you who was credited for borrowed info!

Book Review: One Step Up from Tabloid Trash
Summary: 1 Stars
This book is nothing but gossip, innuendos and plagiarism from a much better biography about Patsy Cline. The author seems to imply that Patsy Cline was a slut and a lesbian, who supposedly slept her way to the top. HELLO? Did she ever listen to any of Patsy Cline's songs? Patsy Cline was, is and will always be, the best female singer, ever! Patsy Cline was talent with a capital "t" and capitals "a,l,e,n" and another "t" for that matter! Don't waste your money, like I did, buying this trash. I, myself, wouldn't even dare to subject anybody else to this book, by trying to resell or give it away!Book Review: SAVE YOUR MONEY
Summary: 1 Stars
If you want a biography of Patsy Cline, save your money and do not buy this book. You will be much happier with Patsy Cline: Honky Tonk Angel by Ellis Nassour. This author adds nothing to Patsy's story but a lot of boring dribble.Book Review: Description has it wrong
Summary: 1 Stars
In the description of this book it states that Patsy died in a car accident but that isn't true. She died in a plane crash on March 5, 1963 in Camden, TN. Makes me wonder what else in this book isn't accurate.
