Summary: A reader in Florida
Review: I thought this book was excellent. It answered a lot of unanswered question that I had about her life and that tragic day she was killed. An absolute must for true fans!

Summary: Loved the book...
Review: I very much enjoyed this book and found it an easy read along with some very nice pictures of Selena, her friends and family.
Her short time with us is a true tragedy, and for someone so young, so talented, and so beautiful both in body and sole.

Summary: Did the authors get their degrees in public relations?
Review: Remembering Selena/Recordando a Selena is a must-have for Selena's fans. It is filled with page after page of glossy photos of the fallen star. However, the superficiality of the book destins it to become a dust-collector on coffee tables everywhere. I haven't opened my copy of the book in a few years. Simply stated, there's nothing in it to capture my interest -- no fascinating stories or new information regarding the singer. Selena's story ran deeper than this glossy P.R. tool would allow one to believe. Buy it for the pictures, but don't buy it if you want to know more about Selena. Selena - Como la Flor, by Joe Nick Patoski; and Selena's Secret, by Maria Celest Arraras, are more interesting reads if you want more than just a shallow look into the life of one of Tejano music's greatest performers.

Review: The author of this book clearly spent a lot of time researching because the information was very detailed and accurate from the research I've acquired on Selena. The photos are beautiful too. I'd highly recommend this!!

Summary: A Very Touching Book Of The Beloved Selena
Review: This book contained intersting facts about her life. Selena was a role model to Latinos and inspired many. She was a very trusting,caring,and loving individual. When I read this book I was touched and I learned certain things about Selena that I did not know of. I finished this book in 2days, its a book you just can't put down. I recommend it and i'm sure Selena fans as well as those who don't know much about Selena will enjoy it.

Summary: Selena in Spanish class - students love it!
Review: This book is awsome!!! At least to me and some other fellows. I do not agree with the lady who did not like the book. The fact that she mentioned there was a picture of Selena dead during the funeral only made me want the book even more. I am not morbid, I actually like lively things, like stars, sun, flowers or simply rain. I thought the book would be sad and depressing to be read. I am glad I purchased and found out the opposite. It is a real tribute to the Queen of Tejano. Many pictures, yes, in black and white most of them. However, I particularly appreciate black and white photos, as well as colored ones. I love the book, my Spanish students are curious about it. Attention High School teachers out there: the book has simultaneous translation of Enlgish/Spanih. In other words, side by side translation. It is a great teaching/learning resource for a very affordable price. It's worth to try it.

Summary: A must to have to all Selena fans!
Review: This book is written so well.The book goes through Selena`s life and career.And it of course includes inside informations and pictures about Selena and her dear and loving husband Chris.I wish there`ll be more information and pictures about the life of the two lovebirds.Because despite the ugly and mean rumours about Selena and Chris ,i truly and deeply believe that they were very happy together and very much in love.They were planning their future very seriously,a new house and kids.She wanted to have 5 kids.
There are also very sad pictures of her funeral and her coffin.The pictures make you feel very sad and frustrated.I mean the big question in my mind was and is, WHY? Why she has to die?What was the meaning of this?
But i really think that this book is very useful and brilliant to all Selena fans out there. The pictures of the book are generally awesome and great!
