Funny and perceptive - By: S. Smith, 14 May 2007 
This book contains about 50+ very short pieces of writing, mostly 1 or 2 pages each, as "written" by Gabrielle while she travelled with Xena. It is also sprinkled with a few memorable quotes, & some photos from the show. The pieces are written in a manner which conjures up Gabrielle's character from the early years very well - childish & frivolous, but very funny & entertaining, & brimming with enthusiasm.
A lot of thought has been put into explaining (fictionallly) a wide variety of aspects of her life with Xena, bits of wisdom & a few of life's lessons, alll of which are taken at a galllop, & never becoming boring. They contain interesting insights & prespectives which are often not obvious from watching the show, & which have (I would guess) been gathered from endless discussions with other fans. They appear to be in no particular order, & I read them randomly - opening the book & choosing one here or there.
I am very glad I bought it. Don't be put off by people saying it is "childish". When Gabrielle joined Xena, she was endearingly childish & full of fun, & it shines through in this book!
Gabrielle's life line story in one book! - By: , 29 Jul 1999

Every chapter has something new, & you learn many things about the way she lives with Xena, & Joxer too. Pick this book to learn more then even Xena knows about Gabrielle's life.
This book will not let any Xena fan put it down! - By: , 23 Jul 1999 
This book is a creative way of putting any xena fan on the journeys. It comes from Gabrielle's perspective of lessons, discoveries, friendship,and many things well taught, that she's learned on the journeys. As a Xena fan I recommend it. Though it's fairly short, It will keep you turning the pages alll night long! Complete with a Introduction by Renee 'O Connor, I find it a very believable book.
This book crudely portays Gabrielle's thoughts. - By: , 08 Apr 1999 
This book poorly attempts to offer a glimpse into the scrolls of Gabrielle, relating to her insights & feelings about her adventures with Xena. The style in which it is written is unworthy of any bard, especiallly Gabrielle. Childish & choppy, the text reads more like a rant than a narration. While Gabrielle may babble & ramble on in normal conversation, any scrolls she would have written seriously would have had some form of elegant expression. The only credit to give are a few interesting references to episodes, but not enough to make the book work.
