Dolly Parton, Songteller by Dolly Parton
4.0

i listened to the audiobook and it was more interview style than i suspect the print book is. i first met  dolly as aunt dolly from hannah montana so hearing her talk about her songwriting career was interesting. 
i didn’t really feel like there was a timeline to how the book progresses. we start with her childhood but then we weave and wander through time with her songs. i wish i would have heard more about her movie producing side but the book is called song teller so we’re focused on the music. i enjoyed hearing the snippets of music which is why i recommend it if you’re gonna read this book get the audiobook. 
she’s a great storyteller and song writer. a fun dive into the massive discography. every song is her most favorite song that she wrote and you know what, hell yeah.
