Purchase options and add-ons

Alana Stewart has lived what many people would consider a charmed life, as an international model, an actress and talk-show host, filmmaker, and bestselling author. But despite her many accomplishments and successes, the truth is, her life has been rife with abandonment, abject poverty, tragedy, and even violence.

In Rearview Mirror, she takes the reader through her mesmerizing journey from her beginnings in poor rural Texas, her escape to New York to become a Ford model, and finally, her seemingly fairytale, but often heartbreaking life in the glittering world of Hollywood.

With compelling openness and honesty, Alana chronicles her unstable, chaotic childhood, her traumatic and violent rape, and her struggles with bulimia, depression, and self-worth. She also writes about her marriages and divorces with two iconic stars, raising three children on her own, the devastating effects of drug addiction in her family, and the tragic deaths of her mother as well as her best friend, Farrah Fawcett.

Rearview Mirror is an inspiring, rags-to-riches story in which Alana also shares the valuable life lessons she has learned from her many challenges and heartaches: unconditional love, faith, gratitude, perseverance, and the importance of finding your higher purpose in life.

A well written, honest, soul bearing read. I thoroughly enjoyed getting to know Alana and her life’s experiences that made her who she is.

Love celebrity biographies but this one, although interesting, left me a little confused. Pretty girl from Texas goes to NYC, signs with an agency and suddenly starts dating the rich and famous. Thousands of pretty kids hit the NYC beat every year and rarely make it so big. There must be more to the story. Her life becomes a living hell soon after with a movie star husband who is self-involved and then she jumps into the frying pan with a rock star. Most of the book is a diary of the aftermath of a difficult childhood and two awful marriages. I did find her friendship with FF very tender and sweet and Alana seems like an OK gal. Hope her life gets on track.

A Kind Soul

Reviewed in the United States on November 29, 2021

I really enjoyed reading about her fascinating life and found her to be a kind soul. I keep hoping she and George Hamilton will just figure it all out and become a couple again now that they are older. Really enjoyed learning about her and found her delightful. Tore through this in 2 days it was that good!

I have to admit that I had no particular opinion on Alana Stewart. However, I had the opportunity to meet her briefly at BEA in 2012 and she was quite nice - actually talking to me for a few minutes and not simply dismissing me after signing her book card.

I was excited to get my hands on her book and when it released on Kindle, I jumped on it.

I was pleasantly surprised by the writing. Stewart had a rough childhood and I felt for her and her struggle with her emotions about this time in her life which obviously motivated much of her future.
She writes with passion and honesty about how hard it was and yet, does not hesitate to show that she was not always as supportive or present as she could have been.

In fact this is kind of a theme throughout the book - honesty. I like that immensely and I like that while describing her two major relationships (George Hamilton and Rod Stewart) she is conscious of the fact that she did not always make the best choices as a woman, wife or mother.

I have to admit that I do not understand her choice in men - as neither Hamilton or Stewart would be my choice, especially if I looked like Alana but that's not really pertinent to this review actually :)

I loved, loved the spirituality that is sprinkled throughout the latter part of the her memoir. It is obvious that Alana has been and continues to want to work on herself and for anyone in 12 step programs this book will touch a nerve (in a good way).

This book was quite short, but I actually thoroughly enjoyed it. Kudos to Stewart for her honesty and for being brave enough to write this.

Fascinating life-I have much admiration for her strength and perseverance

I watched fox news today and Alana Stewart gave interview regarding her new book. In the few short minutes she spoke I was surprised of her humble beginnings and struggles in life. I ordered kindle edition and started the book today. I have read few chapters and can't put the book down. Her life is fascinating and the book is great read. I highly recommend it. Alana is a woman of kindness, elegance, strength, and I wish her much happiness from her children/new granddaughter Delilah. I am not from her generation but my mom told me years ago when Farrah Fawcett passed away that Alana was true friend to Farrah and a lady with much class. Its nice to read about a hollywood star who is down to earth and honest. Thank you for sharing your story with public.

A wonderful read!

Reviewed in the United States on July 14, 2013

Verified Purchase

This book was wonderful. The more I read her work the more I look forward to more of her writing. She wrote straight from the heart, and told what I believe to be a truthful account of her life. Her first book about her long friendship with Farrah Fawcett was also wonderful, and I was excited when I saw she had done an autobiography. I hope she continues to write as she has a unique ability to tell a story and hold the reader's interest and leave her readers wanting to read more of her work. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who loves a book they just can't put down.

Very Insightful

Reviewed in the United States on October 16, 2015

Verified Purchase

I can relate to this woman's life, [as mine is almost a mirror image of hers]. It has taken me years to come to terms with the poor choices I've made with unavailable men! I do hope "young women" will read this book so they can understand what makes them tick earlier in life. Hopefully this will give them insight so they don't waste their young years on the "bad boys"! I like Alana's style of writing and enjoyed her memoir.

Of course, you have to be interested in Alana Steward to buy it, but once you do - you will not be disappointed. I felt deligthed I didn't miss it as I was in a certain doubt whether to buy it or not in the beginning. It's quite an honest story of an interesting life.
