 Good book in a simplistic way Feb 27, 2006
By JoeRobQueens
"JoeRob"
My wife bought this book on a whim. She left for the weekend and this was my weekend entertainment. My wife loves romantic ethnic type novels and I assume that's why she bought this. I like baseball so I decided to give it a try. I am not really into romantic type novels but this book was compelling enough. In the northeast we have lots of Gypsies here so that to sort of got me curious.
It is what it says it is. It is basically what this guy Austin is dreaming to be in the future. He goes through Vietnam, his own problems to finally get the chance at his dream and the story follows along well enough.
There is one chapter that goes a little too long. The ending is not a "normal" ending as it is not what I expected at all. But still it was entertaining and a quick read. It makes you think differently about Gypsies.

 GYPSY DREAMER Feb 26, 2006
By Pamela T. Barnhill
This book is truly a dream for the Author.As he and his family are very special friends of mine and are very caring and loving people. Kevin has always,and I have known him all his life,been a giver, and gone out of his way to help a lot of people.I have not read the book since its release from the publisher. I do have it ordered! As I said this is a dream for Kevin Lee and a long time in coming,and its about time too.
I have read the orginial manuscript, When I went to visit him and his beautiful family in Nashville Tenn. just a few days after 9/11.I brought a copy of the manuscript back with me.It absolutely blew me away.It was so moving.A dream is a series of thoughts,images and emotions.A dream is also something notable for its beauty, excellence and enjoyable quality and purpose.The way things in life are now we all need a breath of fresh air. We need to dream and hope! I cannot wait to read the edited book.This is truly a story of dreams,hope and love. I gave this book 5 stars.And if I could have I would have given it 10.This book has heart and soul.I hope it will be the first of many.
Buy this one you want be sorry.

Anyone Can Dream Apr 15, 2006
By Marvin O. Leon
What a great accomplishment for the Author! Who else would know what dreams are all about and how it feels when they come through.
A sweet story with lots of love, dedication and commitment portrayed. It demonstrated that it does not matter who you are and where you come from dreams can come true: A simple story of genuine emotions, easy to read and emphasize. It seams so real.
For those who know nothing about Gypsies, it gives you a beautiful insight of a gypsy's life. I was enlightened.
I agree with a comment that another made. There is one chapter that is indeed a little too long; but this is his first book and I am sure there are lots more in store. I am looking forward to them. I do not agree that the ending was not "normal." I think it ended well. Sad but it would have not been realistic but rather, more "fairy-tailish" if Austin did not die.
