So excited to read this and share my thoughts. With the trailer bring released for Daisy Jones the other day I couldn’t think of a more perfect read to fill the gap until the show premieres.

Jenny Boyd's extraordinary life is the stuff of movies and novels, a story of incredible people and places at a pivotal time in the 20th century.

As an up-and-coming young model, Jenny found herself at the heart of Carnaby Street in London, immersed in the fashion and pop culture of the Swinging 60s. With boyfriend Mick Fleetwood, sister Pattie Boyd, George Harrison and the rest of the Beatles, she lived the London scene.

I have to admit, I knew nothing about Jenny Boyd and her relationship with Mick Fleetwood. This autobiography describes the highs and lows associated with her experience of the swinging 60s from fashionable Carnaby St to religious retreats in India with the Beatles and the drug fueled world of the music business in Los Angeles, Although it delves into the day-to-day lives of those who were partners of the music greats, it shines a light on the loneliness, drugs and infidelities. A must for any Fleetwood Mac, Beatles or Eric Clapton fans but remember what they say about never meeting your heroes...

This was such an interesting read.
The author was so well-known at the time that it's somehow surprising that she had a life before stardom.
Besides that, and an account of her experiences among Fleetwood mac, the beatles and other 60s stars, there is a good deal of cultural insight.
She links her anecdotes to shifts in the zeitgeist.
She also talks about her own influence on culture such as inspiring 'within you, without you'.

Wonderful, engaging memoir. Of course it's full of ludicrous encounters with some of the most celebrated pop stars of the 60s and 70s and the author has some charm it never grates.
