About this ebook
Amy Winehouse needs no introduction. A critically acclaimed recording artist, she touched millions with her music during her short but extraordinary life.
Following her tragic death in July 2011, Mitch Winehouse wants to tell her incredible story in full. “Amy, My Daughter” will take the reader through her mischievous early years, her rise to stardom and to her much publicised struggles with addiction. The book will bring the many layers of her life together – the personal, the private and the public – to create a fitting tribute to his much loved daughter.
Using exclusive extracts from his personal diary, Mitch discusses shocking and concerning events in his daughters life that will tug at the heartstrings of Amy’s fans across the globe.
Featuring never-before-seen photos of Amy, taken from the family album, “Amy, My Daughter” promises to be the definitive account of an iconic figure who, although tragically taken at an early age, has left a musical legacy that will enthral audiences for many years to come.
All proceeds from the book will be donated to The Amy Winehouse Foundation, the charity that Mitch has established in Amy’s name to help children and young adults facing difficulty and adversity in their lives.

7 ratings5 reviews
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5It's not a good sign when I start skimming through the pages of a book because I'm getting bored with the content. This could have been a very compelling story but it's not well told. Mitch Winehouse loved his daughter very much and cared for her well being but there are just too many incidents where she is going to quit drugs or alcohol and regresses. He gives a very solid portrayal of her life within the very loving Winehouse family, her early success in the industry and her unhealthy relationship with her husband Blake Civils. Her premature death was a tragedy as she had a great voice and a talent for writing lyrics. Again, a good editor could have cleaned up the content.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Muy emotivo relato de la vida de una hija extraordinaria . Lo amé !
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Reading this in late 2023 a little more than 12 years after Amy's passing and The way he describes Amy is so beautiful and touching and just shows he loved and still loves his darling daughter Amy so much. I definitely underestimated him before I read this book. Mitch was and is a great father and will always be I definitely recommend reading this book it's amazing and very well written. We love you Amy. ?
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Amy was probably my favorite female artist of all time, such a sad story and sad end to her life.
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5Amy's father, Mitch, tells his daughters story, one of music, fame and drugs. I found myself really disliking Mitch and Amy by the end of the book. Everything was really just the same cycle, drugs/alcohol, saying she is quitting, drugs/alcohol, saying she is quitting. Mitch seemed to blame her problems on others, rather than looking at himself, his family or Amy's psychological state. Overall, I thought this book was a bust.
