well-written

That’s what well-written dialogue and good casting can do.

The essays, arranged in an order corresponding to O’Connor’s discography, are individually formidable, well-written, heartfelt and heart-rending; the essayists picking their song and then connecting that song to “some kind of pivotal experience in your life, whether a moment of challenge or transformation or joy,” co-editor Martha Bayne explained.

But I think it’s still well-written.

“Honestly, all you need to do is be good. If you’ve got well-written, well-illustrated books, they will find an audience. Gimmicks are gimmicks. Gimmicks only last for a short amount of time. My favorite books are the ones that have good artists and are telling a solid story,” Grimshaw said.

“Cher: The Memoir, Part One,” is a fun read, a candid and well-written book that will justifiably make her legion of fans excited for the release of the second volume.
