1.0 out of 5 stars Exploitive and Misleading, April 21, 2003

This review is from: John Denver and Me (Paperback)

Don't go slumming in this woman's autobiography and her accidental encounter with John Denver and a one night stand. It certainly isn't a balanced perspective of anyone. All of us have challenges and if you are a fan of John Denver, you are aware of his. Out of respect for his family, his children and Annie, it's not necessary to give voice to every indiscretion. Rather, let's realize that none of us look well under a microscope and focus on the good his work is accomplishing and the joy and insight his music brought us all. "Take Me Home,"John's own autobiography, is a good place to start. If I could rate this woman's book any lower I would.

As a family member I was shocked. The author is just trying to capitalize on a one-night-stand. No wonder it is printed by a print-on-demand publisher, they print anything submitted. This is not worth your money. The only facts are the appendixs which include John's biography and discography which are listed online.

1.0 out of 5 stars This book is pure garbage., April 25, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: John Denver and Me (Paperback)

This is a ridiculous book where the author recounts how she became an airline stewardess, met lots of celebrities, and had a one night stand with John Denver. Anyone who respects John, as she claims to, would never had written such a thing. I am sure it would not have been written if he were still alive. I am sure he would not be happy to know that this is out there available for anyone to read. It would have been better left unsaid. A one night stand with a celebrity is not love. It comes off sounding like something written by some giddy school girl, not by a grown woman at least in her 40's. This is a warning to any true John Denver fan. Do not buy this book. Donate the money to some worthy cause instead.
