Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent autobiography
Review: 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.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: snore.........
Review: I will admit that I found this book to be quite interesting in the beginning when she talked about how she was brought up. However, the story starts to drag at the middle of the book.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Best Celine Book!
Review: 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!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Go beyond an author's point of view...
Review: In her own words, Celine describes her life, the good times and the bad. A rags to riches story as they say. Who better to write a book about Celine than herself. Go beyond an author's point of view and go behind the scenes to look at the adventure called life as told by Celine Dion. You can read how Celine got through thick and thin. You can laugh with her, cry with her,love with her, feel with her. You can personally find out more about Celine than anyone you know. After reading this book, fan or not, you will understand her emotions and know what it is like in this hard, musical life of a diva. You will then understand that fame isn't always fortune and that it doesn't happen overnight. Celine will share her thoughts on fame and how to rise above all. How to become a diva. Celine will know, like many other things in the music business. Reading this book will help you deal with your pain while reading how Celine dealt with hers. After reading this book, you have an I.Q. of Celine that noone will believe.

Summary: The BEST Celine's Book
Review: That's the BEST book of Celine since she wrote it by herself, in her OWN words. That's the story about this wonderful person / singer. The story of a famous person that NEVER forgot from where she came from.The story of a great romance between Céline and her husband, René Angelil. Don't think twice, buy it. 0:-)

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Best Book I Ever Read
Review: The My Story, My Dream is an excellent book. My friend got me the book for Christmas 2001. It's so neat how it talks about Celine growing up and becoming so successful. I would totally
recommend this to someone who loves Celine. Or, someone who loves true stories. It's a book that's so interesting. I could never stop reading it.It also, has pictures of her when she was younger and newer pictures. I hope you get this book. It's a book you'll never put down. P.S. It's the best true story ever!

Summary: A modern-day Trilby
Review: The power of Celine Dion's voice is not to be denied, but to read her "autobiography" is a disturbing experience to those of us who are not devoted fans. "My Story, My Dream" is one of those "everything I've done and everyone I've met is so wonderful" books, and while Ms. Dion's name is on the cover, it is the hand of her husband/manager Rene Angelil that appears on every page. Far from presenting him as the near-god she (and the rest of her family) obviously believes him to be, Ms. Dion's gushing worship instead reveals Angelil for what he truly is--a master marketer and charming manipulator. He dangled the carrot of stardom in front of Ms. Dion's family, who then had no compunctions about handing their twelve-year-old daughter to a middle-aged man who essentially separated his young charge from everything she had ever known in order to "make her a star." In the process, he thoroughly convinced a young, impressionable girl that HE was the only one who knew what was best for her. Is it any wonder that Ms. Dion fastened her affections on him, the only man outside her family he ever allowed to get near her? That Angelil made Ms. Dion the success she is today is undeniable, but he also has made her a emotionally fragile puppet who will probably self-destruct if something ever happens to her master--and "My Story, My Dream" is by no means reassuring otherwise.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: The only book on Celine BY Celine herself
Review: There's a difference between other books ON Celine Dion and this one. This is a book which is authored BY Celine Dion herself. Therefore, Celine stands behind all what is said in the book. If you are loking for some truthful and quite candid revelations, buy it. If you are looking for gossips on Celine, I guess you won't find them in this one.

The book is a first attempt of Celine to try the "outfit" of a real star. Not "some" star, but a major STAR who she became after the Titanic. She tells all about how it happened, how it became possible, and how it feels without overloading you with the details of her childhood and other corny things. It goes right into what Celine is about - Life and Dreams.

I think it is a good book. In fact I used it a lot while creating my Celine Dion web site celinedreams.com. If you are a fan, it is a must have book!
