The story of an Alaskan angel living in California

This is basically your typical celebrity biography that is quickly (if not thoroughly) written to make a buck on a star's popularity. But having said that, this is a good, breezy bio which will be enough for the average indiscriminating Jewel fan who just wants to know a bit more about her personally. The book is a bit dated by now, but still worth a read. David Rehak author of "A Young Girl's Crimes"

Baring of a Soul

I read this book a few years ago, but I thought it was very informative to see inside a person's soul who is as genuine as they come. Like most biographies the stars are more into telling shocking stories(true or not) to find a fan base. Jewel has nothing to hide and she puts her softest most fragile thoughts into all her work; that is what kept my curiosity at its highest level- her amount of sincerity. I have found through reading all her books that she has influenced me dramatically. It is amazing that in the height of the alternative movement in music; here comes a young girl from Alaska singing music from the heart about everyday events, so she changes the format of music completely to a much softer more meaningful kind of sound... I am sure if a lot more people would listen to their heart more and not be so impulsive things could be a lot better in the world today.

It was great!

I read this book a few days ago, and I really liked it. I wanted to know more about Jewel because I love how she sings and when I read this book I discovered a lot of things that I didn't know about her. I'm really sure you'll like it!

A good way to learn about Jewel

I liked this book. I found things I didn't know about Jewel and where she came from and what her life was like before she was famous. If you like Jewel you'll enjoy this book.
