R.d Phillips Posted July 7, 2013 at 01:35 AM Posted July 7, 2013 at 01:35 AM I can't decide between getting the tour de force book or My story My Dream which book do you prefer? Quote http://extras.mnginteractive.com/live/media/site36/2009/0225/20090225_100519_00030541_H6124821_200.jpg
Davey84 Posted July 8, 2013 at 08:23 AM Posted July 8, 2013 at 08:23 AM If i were you... I'd go for For Keeps, that is about the same as My Story My Dream... but more recent and with keepsakes! But if you really want to choose between those two, I'd go for My Story My Dream as it's official.

takeachance Posted July 8, 2013 at 09:23 AM Posted July 8, 2013 at 09:23 AM I loved "my story , my dream" , and then after it read "for keeps" as it continues the story. I wish another following on would come out Quote http://i66.tinypic.com/2dk08jn.gifRIP Rene Angelil xx Sending Love and Prayers to Celine
Lindah1984 Posted July 8, 2013 at 10:33 AM Posted July 8, 2013 at 10:33 AM My story My Dream. I really like For keeps too.And Céline Beyond the Image is my favorite, great pictures and I really relate to the story and it shows perfectly how amazing and wise Celine is. Quote

Whatever you choose you won't be disappointed!I really wish she wrote an updated one cos so much has happened in her life since then! and updated version would be amazing I have not read all of my story my dream but I have read small excerpts out of it and I really liked it, but I agree with you 100% that a updated version of the book would be amazing because she could tell all about the first vegas show, the world tour and her struggle to have another child, which she gave birth to eddy and nelson and she could talk about her new vegas show, I think it would only be fair if a new celine book would be published since she has 3 children now.

dmeredith Posted July 8, 2013 at 05:39 PM Posted July 8, 2013 at 05:39 PM I already own for keeps it was probably the best celine purchase I ever made. "Beyond the Image" and "My Story, My Dream" are both excellent!! I wouldn't be able to decide!!! I have all of the books mentioned, and I would buy more if they were available. I would love to have an updated book!!! I'm so impatient when it comes to getting anything about Celine, or from her, in the form of a book or CD. I even get impatient to get new items in the Celine store at Caesars Palace, or from the boutique on her website. So, I wouldn't be able to choose which book to buy. I'd have to buy both of them!!! That's just me tho'. Of course, I realize that sometimes we have to choose due to finances. Get one book one month and wait a month to get the other one. I hate when that happens, 'cause I don't like having to wait!!! LOL You'll love whichever one you choose. Beyond the Image has a lot of great pictures, but My Story My Dream has a great story. So, good luck choosing!!! :-) 1 Quote

DionFanAlways Posted July 9, 2013 at 12:50 AM Posted July 9, 2013 at 12:50 AM She really does need an updated book, badly! Quote I have had the time of my life following this woman! Much love.
chocolatechip15 Posted July 9, 2013 at 01:00 AM Posted July 9, 2013 at 01:00 AM I LOVE My Story, My Dream -- definitely my favorite of the official biographies, because it's written in Celine's voice. I know George-Herbert Germain helped her write it, but she actually read the whole thing, changed things she didn't agree with, etc -- which I don't think was true of the others -- so it's really more *her* book than any of the others. I also love it because it primarily reads as the love story of her and Rene (along with everything about her career, but a lot of it is kind of through the prism of her love for Rene, which I think is how she lived it as well). I think it's beautiful -- though we definitely do need an update!! 3 Quote
littleames Posted July 9, 2013 at 01:50 AM Posted July 9, 2013 at 01:50 AM I LOVE My Story, My Dream and I also LOVE For Keeps because of all of the goodies inside! They are both very personal books! Quote
nuts2you Posted July 9, 2013 at 02:07 AM Posted July 9, 2013 at 02:07 AM I just wish we get some of the French books made into English, That is what we really need, but someone need to talk to Rene a CO, or her MGMT TEAM, to see if that is possible. Quote
kevincheung410 Posted July 9, 2013 at 02:49 AM Posted July 9, 2013 at 02:49 AM I prefer My Story, My Dream. But Fpr Kepps is my favourite and Céline Beyond the Image w/ great pictures I really like. Quote www.celinecn.com Youtube | Sohu
Prima_Donna1 Posted July 13, 2013 at 08:03 PM Posted July 13, 2013 at 08:03 PM I have Tour de Force and that book has a lot of pictures, however, I never really finished reading it. I also have My Story My Dream and that one is a must get for a fan and for those that want to know her life story. I think when I can afford it I might have to try to get the other one's mentioned here.

flutefreak Posted July 15, 2013 at 03:00 AM Posted July 15, 2013 at 03:00 AM I have all of the books also but my favorite is my story, my dream, I find the way she tells her and Rene's love story so touching. I read the entire book in about 2 days. 1 Quote
chocolatechip15 Posted December 28, 2014 at 04:34 AM Posted December 28, 2014 at 04:34 AM Has anyone ever compared Ma Vie, Mon Reve to My Story, My Dream? I thought I remembered reading that the Quebec version of Ma Vie, Mon Reve had some addiotnal material. I see that Amazon says that Ma Vie, Mon Reve is 379 pages . . my English version of My Story My Dream is only 293 pages. Are there really almost 100 pages more material in the Quebec version? Or is it just that the pages are printed differently? And how would you know if you were getting the Quebec version or the version printed for France? Just trying to decide if it's worth it to try to get the Quebec version. Quote

Check the print dates. Some had a prologue chapter after RC was born. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Edited December 28, 2014 at 04:58 AM by NicoNV 1 Quote

I thought I had also read that there was a Quebec version that had, for instance, additional detail about Celine's relationship with Anne-Marie and other things that they thought Americans wouldn't be interested in. 1 Quote

flutefreak Posted December 28, 2014 at 01:35 PM Posted December 28, 2014 at 01:35 PM I wish she'd write another part of the book after RC was born up until now. So much has happened since the book was written. 7 Quote
