2.0 out of 5 stars Life Lessons of a TV Personality
I really wanted to like this book. It's a collection of life lessons by Maria Celeste,a Spanish TV Personality. In the prologue she writes that the lessons are meant for her children; and maybe they will appreciate it more than the average reader. Overall there are 35 "lessons" included. Each consists of an experience that Maria Celeste had, and the insight she gained...

This review is from: Make Your Life Prime Time: How to Have It All Without Losing Your Soul (Hardcover)
MAKE YOUR LIFE PRIME TIME is an inspirational and utterly insightful guide to the power of forgiveness and the importance of striving for excellence.

4.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful and bright, January 21, 2010
This review is from: Make Your Life Prime Time: How to Have It All Without Losing Your Soul (Hardcover)
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
This is an enchanting little gem of inspiration for all women everywhere. Heck, I think anyone could glean a dose of genius from this. Celeste brightly and sincerely expresses the "secrets of her success" if you will but without any of the cold hard cash style of other life successes. It's riveting, well-told, and simply a sparkling read. I guarantee you'll come away from this book with a different view on life.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Memoir, an Autobiograpy and a Heirloom, December 17, 2009

(VINE VOICE)   
This review is from: Make Your Life Prime Time: How to Have It All Without Losing Your Soul (Hardcover)
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
I originally wanted to get this book so I could share some of the insights for my wife, since she exceptional language skills and Maria Celeste is someone she has watched in the past. But upon reading this, I was impressed that her desire was initially to write about her life for her kids to understand a lot about her and to give them ideas and ways to deal with life, love and opportunity.

She starts with two interesting stories about her mom first and then her dad. She delves into the encouragement she received when learning to swim at a young age and how she had the chance to be in the Olympics.

She shares us her lifes stories with her first husband and gives us a thread of her career in Journalism along with many very interesting anecdotes. She talks about love, forgiveness, character, frankness, taking chances, being gracious with former adversaries. She shows us by proper amounts of tenacity and taking opportunities that arise, that life can have some fun as well as new vistas.

I was very impressed at how she writes and her passion for the stories she shares. Surprising to me as well is how fast this book was to read through. I was done in one full day, of course not a full 24 hours. But I started reading this last evening and was finished the next evening. Not that I could not put the book down, it was that the 30 plus chapters were short, quick reads.

She wishes her children will learn from the book, I have learned from it and there are definately things to apply. In a time when our economy is struggling, there are things we can do to make an impact in the world around us. Make Your Life Primetime shares with us how to be brave to face a world of opportunity.

4.0 out of 5 stars Intregrity By Any Means Necessary, August 11, 2009
This review is from: Make Your Life Prime Time: How to Have It All Without Losing Your Soul (Hardcover)
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
Maria Celeste has open her heart and exposed her soul in this collection of personal life lessons. Early on she informs readers that these lessons are intended for her children but some will be useful for the masses. There are over 30 different lessons that detail experiences that she had and explains what she learned from them. Many of the lessons were very specific and may not be relatable to all. The insight into the life of a Spanish TV personality provides an unique view to her culture and reasoning behind life decisions she has been forced to make. The underlying message seems to be hold on to your integrity by any means necessary. Overall, this book is motivational, inspiring and would be a great gift for the recent graduate, thank you present or something to help you remember the good in your life.

4.0 out of 5 stars An Easy Read with Valuable Prime Time Lessons, August 5, 2009
This review is from: Make Your Life Prime Time: How to Have It All Without Losing Your Soul (Hardcover)
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
"Make Your Life Prime Time: How to Have It All Without Losing Your Soul" is brilliantly presented in short, sassy, personalized sections. Presented with lovely photographs, this text is recommended for those employed in the media or entertainment industries.

Lessons learned in this book are kept perfectly short, within thirty four brief chapter sections, which makes it an easy read. The stories are dramatically engaging based on the author's adventures and personal Prime Time experiences. Although the wisdom is somewhat universal, it's an interesting read that seems more useful for those within the industry.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
I thought this was a good read.
The personal accounts make it easier to relate to.
In my opinion, most people would find something motivational or inspirational in it.
Have to admit that I was not/am not familiar with this celebrity, but I think personal accounts make it easier to absorb books of this nature.
