The best Alanis bio around!!

This is the best Alanis bio around. This book deserves so much more than just five stars! I have three different books about her and this one is the best. While the pics may be a little lacking the content is unbeatable. Anytime I need to look back on something in Alanis' life I use this as my sort of encyclopedia of her life. Paul has written numerous newspaper articles about Alanis, so we know what he says is the truth. If you want to know about Alanis' life, don't touch "Ironic", or "Death of Cinderella", get this one instead!

Read this and remember it

All I have to say about this book is this: if you want an interesting, informative book about the life of Alanis Morissette, one that is accurate and obviously researched, then you have to find a book written by Paul Cantin. He is the only person truly qualified to be Alanis Morissette's biographer, and he has proven it. I mean this. Do not buy a biography of Alanis Morissette that wasn't written by Paul Cantin. At the very least, if Cantin didn't write the book, he has to approve of it.

IMPORTANT MESSAGE

Hello, this is Nadinia of Alanis Zone. This is the best bio on Alanis in the universe. It is interesting and has tons of facts and pictures. However, it is essential that I forewarn all potential purchasers of this fantastic book that the text of this bio is EXACTLY the same as the text in the books Alanis Morissette: You Oughta Know and Jagged. You see, Paul Cantin has only written 1 book, but it has been published by different people under different names. In other words, they are all identical except for the covers and Alanis Morissette: A biography has a condensed version of pictures. For the latest news on Alanis, please visit Alanis Zone.

Excellent! Best Biography I've Ever Read!

This book is so well-researched, I'm wondering if God wrote it himself! In this wonderful book, by paul Cantin, it has neve-before-seen photos, and from moment to moment acurrencies!

Paul Cantin's Alanis Bio is FANTASTIC

First I'd like to say it's a mystery to me why this book's been around in Australia for a few months but is only just coming out in America. Anyway, the biography of Alanis Morissette by Paul Cantin is VERY well researched and accurate. The best part is that it's an authorised bio so it has direct quotes from Alanis about her experiences. This book is totally uncensored (maybe a bit biased) - does not pretend to hide anything.
