Publisher's summary

From the moment they burst into our lives, the Spice Girls have inspired millions around the world.

Emma, Geri, Melanie C, Mel B and Victoria were adored and admired in equal measure. Their determination, fierce independence and Girl Power philosophy have motivated generation after generation of young women.

Sunday Times bestselling biographer Sean Smith reveals what life was really like for the fab five, before and after they found fame – the ups and downs, personal conflicts, break-ups and controversies, health issues and trials of parenthood. Baby, Ginger, Sporty, Scary and Posh have always been so much more than their iconic image.

They conquered a male dominated music industry, raised twelve children between them while, over the years, their reunion tours have led to renewed outpourings of affection and excitement: the story of five ordinary women achieving extraordinary things is as wonderfully resonant and powerful as ever.

Great overall look at the spice girls

This book covered everything I wanted to Hear. I was most interested in their childhoods and how they got started. This hook did that and more. Great narration. And essential for any spice girl fan

I LOVED The Details, not the accents 🤣

Being a HUGE slice girl fan since I was 6, I thought there’s nothing I don’t know already, so I was skeptical I would learn anything new. This book filled in the details I had gathered over the past 20+ years watching interviews and reading magazines about them.

The only part I didn’t enjoy was when the narrator tried to do different voices and accents. Maybe it’s because I’m not used to hearing an English accent imitating other accents, but it sounded silly 🤣 maybe the narrator isn’t good at accents? It was comical even when the subject matter wasn’t.

All in all, a definite must listen for ANY spice girl fan 💯
