A nice little book about a nice girl who became a singer and actress. It held my interest but it was your basic celebrity memoir.

This was a pretty good book if you don't know much about Olivia Newton-John's life. Not very in-depth, has a little of a People magazine article quality about it, but not bad & at least I know a little about her life.

The biography of Olivia Newton-John by a guy who had interviewed her twice. Not very memorable.

Loved this book. Highly recommend it. Could hardly put it down. It's very upbeat and enjoyable to read. Even the difficult times in her life were written in a manner different from what I've read before. As a writer myself it taught me and I decided for the future this is how I want to write. She did go into sharing how much she loved the same people repeatedly but I this didn't get a little tiring until the last three chapters. Very inspiring. She such a great positive contributor to so many pe Loved this book. Highly recommend it. Could hardly put it down. It's very upbeat and enjoyable to read.

She such a great positive contributor to so many people. I admire her even more after reading this. I'm so glad she published this. I'm going to give out copies to my friends and family come Christmas this year. I would encourage her to write another book called, "Living Well". Intertwining what she learned, and her stories, about learning to live well (pros and cons), including about her use of herbs, etc.

This book provided a lot of information about Olivia’s life beyond ‘Sandy’ in Grease! It was a very interesting read.

Great read! Her life seemed so much like mine, but definitely way different than mine. I too, had to have a triple heart bypass surgery, before she dicovered she again has cancer! Livvy, I am real certain that you are going to survive for a long time! How do I know this? Because, I was born on Aug. 26 1948, and plan on being around til I'm at least 90+ Good read, she definitely is a survivor! She's going to be in our lives for a long time. I believe this because, similar to her, I've survived maj Great read! Her life seemed so much like mine, but definitely way different than mine.
