Thanks for your review it make me feel full of it. Actually I don't like the young adult and science fiction book like this. But this one give me mix of American idol and UFO.

I don't often read books like this, but I'm interested! Whenever I read fantasy, the book has few, if any, connections to the real world. However, since you enjoyed this so much, I might think about giving this book a try.

A great singer then lost in the crowd. Then she's back to her passion leading her to add value to her country. That sounds entertaining and an incredible journey. Thank you for a great review!

This book sounds like an exciting read with various ups and downs, and successes and challenges in the protagonist's life. However, I'm disinclined to read this book because of the presence of profanity and erotic content.
And congrats on BOTD to the author.

An amazing book that features a strong female character who is not afraid to be herself and also discusses a wide range of issues. Congrats on BOTD, and fantastic review!

The review is amazing! The cover page is a reflection of what the book entails. I'd love to read this book and find out more about Christina powers. The character sounds quite interesting.

From the cover, I thought it is one of those YA novels or the storyline would be something like the show Hannah Montana, minus the living dual lives part. But after reading your review, I can say I'm intrigued with the storyline, and this comes across as my kind of book.

I liked that Christina grew to become a great woman hence her name powers. I like such themed books. Though it was unfortunate that her relationships did not endure. I loved the summary. Great review.

There was nothing I disliked about this book, as I loved every part. I encountered a few errors in this book. Therefore, it was professionally edited. Overall, it was an astounding read, and I’m proud to give it a rating of four out of four stars.

James Aiello’s Christina Powers American Goddess contains several profane words and explicit erotic scenes. Anyone who would love to read about the fictional story of a woman who lived most parts of her life on her terms while going for all that she wanted will appreciate this book, and I recommend it to them.

Did we read two different books? Different editions? I found tons of mistakes just on the first ten pages, and I think the character was not relatable. But I guess, as they say, different strokes for different folks. I'm glad you enjoyed it.
Thanks for your enthusiasm!

"Christina Powers American Goddess" by James Aiello - a racy love story crashes into the dust for Christina Powers. She emerges from this disillusionment to become famous again and achieves success in politics, becoming the president. James Aiello writes with passion and a fast racy style that keeps the reader's interest.
Great review. Thanks.

Best fit for an adult audience, today's BOTD is about a woman destined to become a star, but only on her own terms. Unapologetically successful, confident, and driven, Christina Powers keeps pushing forward, despite setbacks and obstacles, while never losing sight of her dreams and goals.

Thank you so much for the review! With what seems like such a strong, positive message, I wish this book didn't have erotic scenes because I would have liked to share it w/my HS students. Either way, I've downloaded my copy and plan to keep it for myself. Thanks again! :-)

It's so random that she picked to move to Rome, just like that. Is there a reason? Family? Long-life dream? I guess I will have to read the book to find out! :D Thanks for your review!
