Taylor Swift: Era by Era The Unauthorized Biography by Caroline Sullivan
A Solid Introduction to the Icon
As a self-proclaimed non-Swifty, I approached this book with curiosity. Yet, after devouring it over the weekend, I can confidently award it three stars—no book hangover, but definitely a satisfying read. Suddenly, I understand the Swift HYPE my friends rave about!
For a newbie like me, the book was both entertaining and enlightening. While die-hard Swifties might know most of the content, I reveled in discovering new songs. Spotify became my companion as I explored tracks I’d missed before.
Caroline Sullivan’s biography, though not groundbreaking, paints a positive portrait of Taylor Swift. It’s a gateway for those curious about her journey. Just beware the European date format sprinkled throughout—I stumbled a few times with my US brain.
The real gem? Unraveling the hidden messages in Swift’s songs. Katelyn Levering’s narration kept me hooked, making this an informative and engaging listen. And as someone who enjoys biographies in general, this peek into Taylor’s musical universe was a delightful addition to my reading list.
