Abbasolutely fabbalous! May 21, 1999 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
A must-read for all ABBA fans! The update done just after Benny & Frida's wedding adds a lot more to the whole story. ie: Frida meeting her father for the first time, Benny & Frida getting married after all those years, etc. It's a great book to give you an insight on the group. Unfortunately, most of the points are well-known to fanatics such as myself, but it makes for a great read. Harry Edgington managed to capture the essence of my group and make me feel like I've known them forever. If you can get it, do! You won't regret it!
