Query: An absolutely worthless book

I hate to belittle an obviously successful songwriter (although I've never heard of any of the songs listed on her website--and I know A LOT of songs), but the examples in the book are awful! Either she wrote the examples in the time it took to punch the keys on the keyboard or the book was designed for songwriters who have no desire of hearing their songs on the radio. Some of the songs, like "Kismet," are so bad/old-fashioned/non-universal that I laughed when I read the words. I'm not saying that I could write better songs than she could (at least not now), but based on all the good things I read on the back flap in the bookstore, I expected a lot more than this. If you're looking to write lyrics period, this book might be acceptable for you. But if you want to write songs for radio, I highly recommend "6 Steps To Songwriting Success" by Jason Blume instead!!
