Great book. Just got finished reading it. She had some very interesting beliefs but she also came from a very prominent family and was very great at singing and had a beautiful voice

Wonderful Book, but…..
I love reading autobiographies so I couldn’t wait to read “Don’t Stop Believin”! BUT WHAT IN THE WORLD HAPPENED TO ALL THE PHOTOGRAPHS???? Photos are absolutely essential to a biography!! There’s anindex of photos listed in the back….????? Apparently the publisher didn’t think paperback readers deservedphotos, or someone wasn’t doing their job! We should all complain to the publisher for not correcting thisterrible oversight!

True reflection of Olivia
Amazing book, well written and from the heart of a deeply private person. Exploring the many aspects of her life.

A must for every ONJ fan!
I have been an Olivia fan for decades. This book, written in her own words, is a wonderful look into the life of a woman who is loved and respected throughout the world. Olivia was not just a great singer, songwriter, and actress, she also cared about the environment and all living things.

Wonderful book.
I stared reading this book on the night she sadly passed (RIP, Olivia) I couldn't believe how much of her life wasn't public knowledge, she went through more pain and suffering in her life than anyone should have to and always remained positive and hopeful. What I really appreciate is that she wasn't writing a tell all book, I don't think she has an unkind word to say about anyone and she had such a positive spirit that she made an otherwise sad story seem somewhat uplifting. I now have a much greater appreciation for the kind, compassionate, strong woman that Olivia Newton John was, she will surely be missed.

Always a Fan
I admit to buying this book because I've always been a fan of Olivia Newton-John. Memoirs don't usually appeal to me, as I think most of them as being fictional accounts of someone's life anyway (who can remember such things of decades past? And most of it never reveals the nitty gritty reality of the person.) Yet, I wanted to read about her journey with cancer.So, this review is for the book only, and it needed an editor. It appears that she might have started writing it years ago, because she mentions something about the pants she wore in Grease and how they withstood 22 years. The movie was released in 1978; it's now 2019, so do the math. She mentions more than once she isn't much of a drinker, but several times refers to vodka, dirty martinis, etc. She overly gushes about Australia, being Australian, and such, and that was the biggest surprise of the book for me. By birth, she's British, having moved with her parents as a child to Australia due to her father's job. Then only lived there a decade or so before embarking on her career and moving to London and then the US. Of course, she now owns property in Australia. I always thought she was Australian; no explanation in the book as to how/why she claims to be Australian (maybe changed her citizenship?). It would have been nice to know.I felt when reading this book, ONJ embraced the Sandy role from Grease in real life. That's how it comes across to me, as a persona for the world to see and believe. Everyone is wonderful, a great friend, etc, and I respect her positive outlook but I suppose I wanted to read about the reality of her situation. What I read wasn't reality, at least not in my opinion. I, too, agree in searching for alternative treatments and therapies, but when her husband was giving her "herbal treatments" that were "mind altering" and "hallucinogenic" (her words), then it crosses the line a little for me.She looks fabulous, and is still a very beautiful woman. I'm glad she has found peace and happiness with her husband and is living with less pain. I wish her all the best.

The best ever.
I followed Olivia's music from the beginnings. Loved her from the start. Her beautiful smile and her sense of humor. Will surely be missed.

Muy bien narrado
Facil de leer, para lo no angloparlantes y nivel ingles medio. Si has seguido la carrera de Olivia, lo vas a disfrutar y recordarás muchos momentos de su carrera y transportarte a una época. Conoceremos a un ser humano muy especial, y una gran lucha por la vida.

Missing the photographs which are claimed to be there
I enjoyed reading Olivia's own recolletions of various events in her life. She was beautiful and remarkably warm and compassionate woman.HOWEVER At the end of the bok is a section of CREDITS which state that there are 20 + PHOTOGRAPHS Throughout the book. These are NOT there in my copy.What hapened ? Did I get an abridged version? No pages have been removed,s o there must have been some glitch in the printing.

Très content de mon achat!
Excellent service. Le livre est en parfaite condition et je n’avais même pas remarqué quand j’ai placé ma commande qu’il s’agit d’un livre avec signature de l’auteure/de la chanteuse.
