I, Tina Details
From Library Journal Tina's autobiography is just what you'd expect from the fiery superstar: high-powered, sexy, honest, with apparently nothing held back. Tina was neglected as a child and abandoned at age 10. At 18 she hooked up with talented piano player Ike Turner; two years later, in 1960, they had their first hit record. The couple enjoyed considerable material success, but life with Ike became hell on earth. In 1976, Tina got out, giving up all rights to her and Ike's assets to gain her freedom. Flat broke, she started a comeback that culminated with Private Dancer, her award-winning, multi-million selling, worldwide smash album. Tina has somehow remained compassionate, generous, sober, a gutsy survivor who never lost faith in her exceptional singing and performing talents. A good choice for public libraries.

Although by now I knew most of the content..it's still a quick..interesting read and a story about over-comingso much turmoil and not getting dragged down by the devil....himself. walking the earth..cause that's reallywhat he was. If she's really at peace and happy? Good for her..too bad the kids suffered the most in the end.
