REBA

Truth, says Reba, doesn't sell tabloids, so the country singer decided to set the record straight with an autobiography. Born poor in 1955, Reba McEntire was chosen the Country Music Association's "Female Vocalist of the Year" in 1984. While a plane crash which killed several members of her band in 1991 was uncommonly tragic, most details of her life are not extraordinary. The autobiography, the abridged audio of the book, and her newest album purposely cross-promote one another. Articulated in Reba's lively, country style, this audio will interest country music enthusiasts, particularly Reba's fans, but holds little entertainment value for others.
