Helen writes with the same fluidity and ease as she speaks - and plays violin. Reading What's She Like is like being in a cozy armchair, drinking Jacksons tea from a porcelain tea set as she shares her reflections and memories - solely just for you. It is deeply insightful, personal and always kind - her words are penned with clarity and a sincere smile. There are great behind the scenes reflections that go deeply into the songwriting, rehearsing and arranging processes, along with a remaining fondness for her peers, travels and contributions to the group. Many books about bands can be sycophantic or even damning. This touching memoir is about the impact Dexys had on Helen and what she strived to give back to this life affirming commitment - mind, body, and soul.
