Harley's Reviews > Girls Like Us: Carole King, Joni Mitchell, and Carly Simon--and the Journey of a Generation

Wow, Sheila Weller is an amazing storyteller and she has done her homework. A lot of research has gone into this book which is about the lives of a generation of women as seen through the lives of 3 female singers of the era. I knew much of the Carole King story having read her memoir and listened to her music. I knew a lot less of Joni Mitchell and Carly Simon. Weller fills her book with details of the lives of the three women but also the people who joined them on their journey. I would recommend the book to anyone who grew up listening to Carole, Joni and Carly as well as anyone interested in the music of the era and the lives of the artists.
