Celine, her story our dream...

Well, I finished reading my book just a few hours ago... I'm still stonished. I love Celine since the first hit I heard. Yes, I fell in love. Reading this book made feel a little closer to her and -for sure - love her even more. There were some things which impressed me much, such as her muting state for 3 weeks, René's illness and her niece's death. But on the other hand I got some power , some will from this book. I was in fight with my lover and as soon as I read the last page I went and said "I love you"... I flew from Brazil just to watch Celine in Chicago-IL and I was very close to her and this book helped me to be a little bit closer to her thoughts, her ways of thinking and the way she is. I'm so proud of her. God take care of her voice, of her baby and of course, of his beloved René. I love you Celine.

Best Celine Book!

If you're going to read any of the Celine books read this one first. Finally Celine in her own words and we now know everything in it about her life is 100% true. Great job Celine!

Excellent autobiography

I went out and bought this book last weekend and finished it in a few days. IT is very readable and eminently enjoyable. Celine talks about her youth in Quebec, her idols, her family, her rise to fame, her chase of Rene, and much, much more. If you have been a fan for years, it is not much new, but it gives new insight into who Celine is. If you are not really a fan, read this and see what the buzz is about.

The best Celine book ever

This is the best Celine Book ever! Because she wrote it and everything is true. It is a must have for every Celine Fan!
