"Fans will be engrossed by the highs and lows of the second highest-paid woman in pop (behind Taylor Swift), concluding with her enjoying life as a new mother to son." ( OK! Magazine)

Almost as Boring as her songs

I get the gist that Adele wasn’t involved in writing this at all

I’m sure she would have insisted on it being far more favourable on her part

Interestingly insightful and perfectly narrated!

Adele is a rare talent who, through hard work, luck and a touch of self efficacy, has succeeded to become one of the best female artists of this generation. Her name will forever remain a part of our musical history.

This audiobook gives an interesting insight into Adele’s childhood and her journey to global success.

It is beautifully presented by narrator Katie Scarfe, who keeps the listener hooked by her charismatic and eloquent voice.
She is now my favourite narrator!
