On Britains Got Talent on April 11, 2009, 48-year-old spinster Susan Magdalane Boyle stepped out onto the stage to jeers and sniggers. As she announced she was going to sing “I Dreamed a Dream”, the judges Simon Cowell, Amanda Holden and Piers Morgan didn’t bother to hide their amusement. One minute later they, and very soon the world, were giving Susan Boyle a standing ovation. She had the voice of an angel and her story was to become a modern day fairytale, a dream come true.

Sloppily written book about a FABULOUS person,
This book was one of the greatest disappointments of my reading life
I think Susan Boyle is just FANTASTIC, and I was hoping to find some inspiration in the book – but it is a badly written, sloppily got together “hash up” of bits and pieces of info about Susan and her life.
There are many instances where the info is repeated word for word from chapter to chapter.
VERY boring, VERY unimpressive – what a pity, as the author had a most extraordinary and inspiring person to write about.
The subtitle “The Unauthorised Biography” is pretty apt – Susan and her entourage would have taken one read of it, and said “NO – NOT GOOD ENOUGH”
I will be buying and reading Susan’s own acct now, and I expect it will be FAR FAR better.

|A Touching Account of The American Dream,
This book is a fantastic account of Susan Boyle’s less than mundane life turned astonishing in a matter of hours. Her biography takes a detailed look at her unsuspected fairy-tale from the humble roots of her Scottish village to SuBo mania and her visit to America.
What I really enjoyed about this book was the intimate glances of Susan Boyle, the ordinary woman–the views of the 48 year old on the road, going through a make over, publicly discussing her learning disabilities, interacting with celebrities, and recalling the pains of her childhood. Some of the moments so eloquently described by the writer sent chills down my spine similar to those from when I first watched her video on youtube.
Although this is a biography, it reads like a non-fiction fairy tale. Boyle is a real-life Cinderella. She ‘s lived the dream and stunned the world with her talent, and her story is a touching testament to the delicate power of the human spirit.

|She dreamed a dream!,
When she was on Oprah last month, Susan Boyle sang “Who I was Born to Be” and said the song “Serves as a sort of an example to other people with the same kinds of dreams. Dreams can come true.” I love Susan Boyle’s inspiring message – not to mention her beautiful voice. I read this book while listening to her new album. My heart was touched and my spirits raised by Susan’s amazing story. I also liked the photos in the book!
