Editorial Review:
This is the first book to explore the rollercoaster life of the talented singer/songwriter whose versatile voice and uncompromising lyrics propelled her first album, Jagged Little Pill, to multiplatinum sales and four Grammy awards.
Stuart Coles focuses on the events that transformed her from a teen pop idol in Canada to an icon of alternative music and figurehead for 'angry young women' everywhere. He also examines her unusual anti-star beliefs and opposition to drugs and alcohol as well as assessing the controversy which surrounds her success, with critical claims that she is a 'record company invention'.
Alanis Morissette: Death of Cinderella Reviews:
First Album is NOT Jagged Little Pill 
2002-06-07 - I have not read this book but by the review of it I realize I don't want to. If it states in the book that her first album was "Jagged Little Pill" then it's incomplete and fictional. She not only put out 2 other albums but also has music videos (inclduing one which co-stars Matt LeBlanc).
Amazing life, amazing singer. 
2001-10-02 - The best female singer, Alanis morissette. this is her life story, she didnt have an easy life. but that what made her the person she is today. if u are a fan/love her music u have to read what's behind it.
Outstanding Pictures .... too brief text 
2001-07-15 - The pictures in the bio of Alanis are outstanding, and may be worthy of purchase. However, the text is too brief - and the author melds facts about Alanis with his opinions about her work and life in a rather unsettling way. I don't think this account of Alanis's life should be given too much weight.
Wanna Get to know Alanis herself then get this book 
2000-01-04 - If you are a fan of alanis morissette like me then you shall definitely like this book as it gives you an insight of what happened in her life right from the time she was born to the time she did her world tours of Jagged Little Pill..

interesting, informative, feel closer to Alanis 
1999-10-07 - This is a great book! There was however one big mistake that I saw. It mentions that on her 21st birthday she sang infront of a crowd of 300 people. I was at that concert June 1st 1995. There was more like 20,000 people!!!!!!!!
