I bought this while I was in Canada and have been stuck to the book since. The chapters alternate between the "Falling Into You" concert tour and a biography of her life. The pictures are excellent and the coverage is wonderful. This is a must have for any Celine fan in the world. I thought this book to be very just in what it claimed and it tells a great story of the past of Celine and gives tons of info about her. And this is the authorized one, which means everything is true and not made up by the tabloits. This is the Celine book to get!!!!!

Celine Dion has definetly authorized the supreme biography on her life! Georges-Herbert Germain is an outstanding author who has captured the life and times of Celine Dion to date. I personally consider myself to be the or one of the biggest Celine Dion Fans ... or FANATICS in the world. Being a subsriber to many newsletters, listbot groups, and other things on the glorious Celine- I even found things in this book that I did not know. The glorious and at some points sad life of Celine Dion is vividly captured in these 422 pages of fascinating revolations. I dream Celine all of the time ... but you can bet; it is even more dreamy now! In the Power of Celine - Lacey B. Van Reeth LaceLu1023@AOL.com

Georges Herbert-Germain does a wonderful job finding the equilibrium between Céline's public stage-life and her emotional private-life. The book's chapter pattern of singer to woman to singer shows that there's more to Céline Dion than being a diva and an international pop icon. Despite being followed by the media since she was 12, Céline appears to have remained grounded in the stories of her past, present, and what she plans to do in the future. There's more behind this diva besides Titanic and pipes of platinum.

This book is simply amazing because you can read her soul, her dreams ,her thoughts and everything...

The book is well written and enjoyable to read. However, I was a little disappointed. One of the major things I love about Celine's life is the intense and passionate love she has for her husband - Rene Angelil. They have a very romantic love story. I wished the book had explored the romantic side of Celine's and Rene's personal relationship in more detail. This would have given the reader a better understanding of who Rene Angelil really is. I know he is not just the mystery man in black.

This book was written by a good friend of the great singer so it was pretty biased but enjoyable anyway. It had a great insight on what it was like to be on the road with Celine. I recommend this book

No word can truly discribe Celine's wonderful voice, dreams and spirit, but I believe this book has managed to do the best it could. Of course, you cannot feel Celine's passion by simply read a book. However, I can ensure you that after reading this book, you must at least start to like this real-life model of human being -- Celine Dion.

I've read this same book in French and I must say that it's an excellent book! It includes almost everything you wanna know about Céline!!

This book is a must read if you are a true Celine fan. I consider myself one. This book tells what Celine did to realize her dream and made it come true. It really tells you what she is like in her personal life. She is a genuine and loving person and loves people. She really cares about what her fans think. And you can almost feel the love that she and Rene share! A wonderful book!
