BILLIE EILISH In Her Own Words

Musical sensation Billie Eilish narrates this quick memoir about her extraordinary rise to fame. Her signature rasp permeates her delivery. There are only a few chapters, and these race by via Eilish's casual delivery. In addition to talking about her music and her brother, musician Finneas O'Connell, Eliish is joined by her parents, Maggie Baird and Patrick O'Connell, at various points to fill in the background on family memories. The overall off-the-cuff style of everyone's delivery makes this audiobook sound like a podcast. Some listeners may find Baird's and O'Connell's interjections abrupt. But, overall, their warm, funny, and kind exchanges create the sense of a fireside chat for listeners. M.R. © AudioFile 2021, Portland, Maine [Published: JUNE 2021]
