Review: When I picked this book up from the library, I immediately thought, "no way." It's huge. It weighs about 5 pounds is big (about 14 inches top to bottom). I started flipping through it and found it quite readable. With a lot of large, color photos, and blurbs about various songs and Dolly herself it was a fast read. I read the whole thing in one day. Some of the songs were unfamiliar to me so I had a good time watching and listening to them on youtube.
