Taylor Swift is Life by Kathleen Perricone

informative lighthearted fast-paced

2.0

I was disappointed by how much this book focused on the relationships of Taylor's life, especially when the author referred to Cory Monteith as an ex when they were publicly never stated to be more than friends and "Kaylor" when Taylor has pleaded her fans to stop shipping her with her friends and made a statement about not being a part of the LGBTQ+ community in 2019. Beyond that, the author made the timeline of her career a little fuzzy, particularly with the Borchetta-Braun fiasco which is most likely due to the fact that they do not want to be sued for libel. This book could have been a lot more fun if it had actually focused on the Swiftie fandom and Easter eggs but in it's current form, I find it at best, boring, and at worst, disrespectful to the artist the author claims is "life". 

Thank you NetGalley, Quarto Publishing Group, and Kathleen Perricone for allowing to read this book in exchange for my honest opinion (unpaid).
