Summary
Grab your lace shawl and top hat and get ready to twirl—this is a full-throttle appreciation of the life and voice of Stevie Nicks from one of rock criticism’s most celebrated writers.
Best-selling author and Rolling Stone columnist Rob Sheffield explores the music and artistry of the rock goddess who has kept generations of music lovers totally bewitched and spellbound, with such classic rock hits as "Rhiannon" and "Gypsy." With Stevie Nicks’s 2019 solo induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, the time is right to uncover the stories behind the songs you love. Learn about the people, places, and events that have influenced her work—and why Nicks’ music is as powerfully alluring today as it was when you first heard it decades ago.
Drawing from Rolling Stone magazine’s extensive archives, and his long time appreciation of Nicks, Sheffield shares the stories behind the best-selling records and the spitfire 1997 Fleetwood Mac reunion show that put the band back on top of the charts—and why Stevie Nicks still speaks to us today. A dynamic, revelatory sketch of the one-of-a-kind icon, The Wild Heart of Stevie Nicks is a portrait as revealing as it is dazzling, as human as it is pure magic

A short delight
Despite being a very short read this proved to be a very enjoyable biography of one of my favourite artists. I loved the constant use of lyrics to illuminate the text and use of Stevie's quotes on the topics.

a complete fan boy homage
Rob's infatuation with this enigma shines from every word, but one fan boy to another, that's good with me.

What an interesting life...the book captures the
drama and complexity of Stevie Nicks' life and the relationships that had a huge impact on the many songs she wrote

Overview of Stevie’s relationship with Fleetwood Mac
I was interested in this because of my great admiration for Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers. Obviously the main thrust of this essay is Fleetwood Mac. I didn’t feel particularly engaged or learn much about either group or Stevie herself. Fairly honest on the big issues the story never really gets going.

It’s ok but nothing new & doesn’t last very long, sure there must be more concert memories

Overlong for information contained
Enjoyed this but felt the material was somewhat stretched. It would have been much improved by having Stevie singing at least a few snatches of her many brilliant songs.

The wild heart of Stevie Nicks
Having listened to many Fleetwood Mac audio books and watched countless documentaries about the band, I thought I pretty much knew everything about them until I listened to this. This isn't only about Stevie but her relationship with the band and with her and Lindsay before meeting Mick. I thoroughly enjoyed this one

A real must for any Stevie Nicks fans. Really enjoy listening to this.
Well, worth a listen, not too long, but gives a great invite into the world of this amazing performer.
