    "Enjoyable book read by the authors"
    What did you love best about Kicking and Dreaming?

    An interesting story. Anyone who listened to Heart's music growing up will enjoy this book.


    What was one of the most memorable moments of Kicking and Dreaming?

    How Ann Wilson was able to overcome her self image issues with her weight. The hurtful comments that were thrown at her would have devistated almost anyone else.


    Which character – as performed by Ann Wilson and Nancy Wilson – was your favorite?

    Both ere equally enjoyable.


    Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

    No, just because of its length. However, I would still listen to sections of it for hours.


    Any additional comments?

    Glad the authors read this book.

    "Wow, what interesting people - great read!!"
    Would you listen to Kicking and Dreaming again? Why?

    Yes, I am actually on my second listen and really enjoy it. Ann and Nancy do a fantastic job recounting their lives and it's great to hear in in their own voices.


    Who was your favorite character and why?

    Love them both. I especially liked how they explained how the Beatles inspired them. They sure sounded like interesting, focused kids and I admire their commitment to the music, their family, and themselves.


    Which scene was your favorite?

    I enjoyed so much, it's hard to decide. That's part of the reason I am listening to it all over again - it's THAT good!


    Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

    Yes, definitely. It might have also been nice if the intro and conclusion music would have been a Heart tune instead of something else


    Any additional comments?

    My only complaint is that i HATED how a narrator introduced each voice with each chapter. One can quickly/easily distinguish between Ann & Nancy's voices, so this "intrusion" is unnecessary and kind of disruptive.

    "A Dream"
    What did you like best about Kicking and Dreaming? What did you like least?

    For big fans, the Wilson sister continue their strong Goddess presence and keep you wanting more just as they did with their music.


    Would you recommend Kicking and Dreaming to your friends? Why or why not?

    I would recommend this for 'any' fan of the Wilson sisters music and art.


    What does Ann Wilson and Nancy Wilson bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

    Both of the Wilson sisters kept me mesmerized with their voices and their stories. Just like their music I was captured by Ann's voice drawn into the tales.


    Was Kicking and Dreaming worth the listening time?

    I am glad it was available on audio book because I moved it to the top of my list and must listen as soon as I downloaded.
