Book Reviews of Whatever Happened to Peggy Sue?: A Memoir by Buddy Holly's Peggy Sue
Book Review: Well told memoir
Summary: 5 Stars
Peggy Sue has chosen to tell us what not only happened to her, but why. Yes, the story has it's high points and its lows. Don't we all have our good qualities and those we aren't so proud of? Buddy Holly, Marie Elena, Jerry Allison, and Peggy Sue herself were only human, after all. Her story helps set the record straight.
Marie Elena has a right to protect Buddy's name and reputation, but in doing so to the extreme, she has harmed herself by creating the impression that she is solely out to make money off her late husband's name and image.
Jerry Allison comes off as problematic, also, but given the culture and time he grew up in, it's understandable why he did some of the things he did. We men aren't always of the best character.
In reading her book, I did not get the impression Peggy Sue was relating only the bad in anyone she happened to write about.
Perhaps, Jerry Allison or Marie Elena could write books of their own to relate their experiences in their own words.
Buddy Holly, Norman and Violet Petty, Niki Sullivan and others are gone. They can't tell us their side of the story. Those who are yet with us can. Peggy Sue has taken the time to give us her view of things. If you read "Whatever Happened to Peggy Sue?" you will have a better understanding of some of the individuals who helped shape or worked with Buddy Holly.
