Celebrity Book Club with Steven & Lily

You know I’m no good…This week we “read” a coffee table book “by” legendary jazz singer Amy Winehouse. Curated by her parents, In Her Own Words is a collection of diary entries, photos, lyrics, report cards, and aspirational mood boards from a young Amy.

PLUS, Steven promises to remake Back to Black….
