“HEART AND SOUL”
Random House has announced American Idol fifth-season winner Taylor Hicks’ memoir “Heart Full of Soul” will be released on Tuesday, July 10.
The 30-year-old Birmingham, AL-native signed the deal with Random House’s Crown imprint early last August.
At the time, the New York Post reported Hicks was paid an estimated $750,000 advance for the memoir, adding it was ghostwritten by David Wild, whose previous work has appeared in Rolling Stone.
The 272-page book is described as an “inspirational memoir about finding your voice and finding your way.”
Taylor will be appearing at Six Flags Over Georgia on June 28th!!!! It is part of a concert series which will also feature Teddy Geiger and Cheyenne (June 21), Cartel (July 5), Jordan Pruitt and The Jonas Brothers (July 12), Bobby Valentino and Paula DeAnda (July 26) and Ryan Cabrera and Click Five (August 9).

I really enjoyed Taylor during the season, but a book??come on what has he done that he should write a book?
Clay’s book had the same theme. Apparently, Taylor didn’t read Clay’s. DUH! Clay had an awesome book and reached #1.
