The I Index

Elizabeth Nelson,
The Wall Street Journal
Captivating.
Jon Pareles,
The New York Times Book Review
Williams’s memoir is as flinty, earthy and plain-spoken as her songs.
David Yaffe,
Air Mail
Throughout the book, she tells you who the songs were about—guys who committed suicide, guys who did her wrong, guys who gave her a little pleasure and a lot of pain—but, really, they’re about you. She wrote songs about desire, about flirtation, about bad behavior that felt so good.
Annie Bostrom,
Booklist
Remarkable for its true insight into the author as a person and as an artist.
Gricel Dominguez,
Library Journal
She weaves a narrative that feels relatable and extraordinary.

Publishers Weekly
