Product Description
‘Winning X Factor was amazing. I didn’t even think I’d get through the first audition, so I just couldn’t believe it when I kept getting further and further. I really didn’t expect to win.
I just feel so incredibly lucky. Sometimes I still can’t believe it’s all happening to me.’
Leona’s life is a real-life fairytale. Three years ago she was an ordinary girl with an incredible voice, working as a daydreaming waitress and wondering if she would ever have a chance to sing.
She then made the life-changing decision to audition for The X Factor and the show completely transformed her life.
Leona has since become one of the biggest stars in the world, with record-breaking hits, countless awards under her belt and adored by her millions of fans.
Now, she will tell her story for the first time and share what it’s really like to go from a normal girl to a global superstar. From growing up in Hackney, discovering her remarkable talent, the gruelling X Factor auditions, working with Simon Cowell and coping with international success; Leona is a home-grown sensation and has an amazing story to share.
Packed with exclusive behind-the-scenes photographs of the stunning star, this book gives you a personal insight into life behind the headlines and reveals exactly what it feels like when all your dreams come true.

Really Leona? Well if so...,
This review is from: Leona: Dreams (Hardcover)
Bear in mind, when reading my review, I am not the typical Leona fan - if there is a 'typical' Leona fan. My teenage daughter would be more inclined towards Leona but I really admired her attitudes and morals both on the X Factor and off, but also think she has a fantastic vocal capability.
Being a sentimental person, I do fall head-over-heels for the 'rags to riches' storylines that dominate X Factor and many other outlets of the modern world. I was a little disappointed to discover therefore that Leona was hardly a novice, she'd won 10 000 pounds in a contest and was offered in conjunction with this a non-existent record deal. I gained the impression that she was a little big-headed (something I would never have thought) in her ramblings as to 'When would I see the judges?' and 'Every audition was the producers'. This does not profess a humble person, there are many people who also claim to 'not know how good' they are and yet also are thrilled at every continuance and positive, whereas Leona appears to take it for granted. For those die-hard fans who insist this is not Leona, as I have portrayed her, read on. If this book was ghost-written (I'm not the best for detecting these things) then the ghost-writer writes very badly, or has attempted to be so like Leona that he/she has completely destroyed any charm she has as a person. The photographs were quite unnecessary, I felt. It's an 'autobigraphy' (or so we're told, she's squashed a small amount of her life into one rather large dull narrative) and I think should have had less pictures. But I do still like Leona, her music's great and I'll be purchasing her new album but perhaps stick to the music, Leona.

Top effort!,

This review is from: Leona: Dreams (Hardcover)
This is a lovely book about my favourite singer. I am a huge Leona fan (I'm over 20 stone) and this book is superb.
I know that people have said that the last part of the book is all pictures - and I can see their point. I tore all the pictures out of mine and made a beautiful collage on my wall, and replaced them with blank pages cut to the same size. I can now fill in details of how her career progresses myself so I can keep it up to date. Well worth the asking price.

Lovely book!,

This review is from: Leona: Dreams (Hardcover)
This book is a lovely book of Leona's dream of coming true. I am a fan of Leona's and saw her in concert earlier this year. She is so down to earth and she is just a regular girl who is living her dream! There are loads of photos of her from her childhood right up to present day. I did find there were far too many and not enough writing but it is still a must for any fan.
