"Intelligent and captivating...Don't miss it." - People Magazine "One of the best celebrity memoirs of the year ... elegantly written and revealing." - The Hollywood Reporter "Carly Simon could have gotten away with just the name-dropping. In her life, she's crossed paths with an astonishing range of famous people, from Cat Stevens and Jimi Hendrix to Benny Goodman and Albert Einstein. So it's a pleasant surprise that in her compelling new autobiography, Boys in the Trees , she lays out her naked emotions and insecurities, and that she proves to be a supple writer with a gift for descriptions."- Rolling Stone "A lyrical look back at her childhood, her career, and oh, the men in her life...anecdote-filled...dishy without being salacious. There's plenty here for fans to feast upon" - USA Today, "Intelligent and captivating...Don't miss it." - People Magazine "One of the best celebrity memoirs of the year ... elegantly written and revealing." - The Hollywood Reporter ?"Carly Simon could have gotten away with just the name-dropping.

As one of pop music's more literate songwriters -- she was the first solo woman to win a Best Song Oscar for Let the River Run from Working Girl -- Simon writes beautifully and affectingly. Her publisher father, for whom she clamored for attention and validation, would be proud." - Miami Herald
