This book was recommended to me by a friend who had recently suffered the death of an infant baby.  Last year, I lost my 29 year old daughter to suicide and my heart is still mending.  I could not put this book down.  I am a Christian person and I truly do believe that the events that took place in this book are true.  The book made me look at my own beliefs and strength that the Lord is getting me through this difficult time.  I would recommend this book to anyone, whether they be Christian or not.  A Christian will have their faith renewed and strengthened and  non-believers will truly have to question themselves.  After reading it the first time, I waited a week and then re-read it.  It was even more powerful the second time because I could put things in a different perspective knowing how it ended.  This is an absolute MUST READ for anyone.  Thank you to the author for sharing this fabulous experience.  I am truly jealous but so happy that you were able to take this walk with the Lord and allow your heart to heal.  I have already purchased enough copies of this book to give one to each of my family members for Christmas.  My dad read it and we discussed it several times after he finished it.  What a life changing book this has been!

I found reading this book to be both thought provoking and yet refreshing.  It was wonderful to get such different outlooks on the death and dying process and to know that it is nothing to be feared or dreaded in any way.  In fact, it is what every soul comes to the earth to experience.  A truly life changing book!

This is a beautifully written book.  I loved the bible passages and then the explanations as to what God is looking for from me.  I will read this book over and over again because it is heartfelt and meaningful on so many levels.  Each chapter gives so much to think about and hold on to when life spins out of control.  It has given me reason to open my eyes and ears and receive all the blessings and goodness that can only come from God.  Our lives are so much more than material things and I am committed to "go deep with God" to enrich my life beyond belief, well past material things..  Thank you for writing this very moving book.

This is one of the most inspiring, spiritual books I have ever read.  Thomas A Kempis really pierces the deepest depths of the soul.  He has presented here a deep raw truth of how a man should live, and in a very inspiring way.  It is a very compelling, thought-provoking read.  One must stop and read and contemplate his words, and I think it will be nigh impossible to not be affected on a profound level.  Although this book probably resonates best with Christians, I think it can be equally valuable to people of any faith.  Such is the way of the Brethren of the Common Life, their focus is not so much doctrine, but very much on how a man should live, imitating Christ as the title implies.  Regardless of what you believe, I think if you read Thomas A Kempis' words and deeply reflect on them, I think they will move you to a profound truth that transcends all doctrine and dogma and really affects the spirit of all mankind.

This book is evidence of how a human being is more than capable of overcoming life challenges and obstacles, the author gracefully takes you in a very deep philosophical and motivating journey.  The ideas and principles derived from the her life events can be used to not only to overcome abuse but can be used in any type of adversity in life.  I really enjoyed how the author portraits her story to the reader with several inspiring references along the way.  The interesting thing is that as I finished reading this book I am in one of the most important moments of my life where I am facing many challenges.  Reading this book opened a gateway to heaven here on Earth. This book is one the best books I have ever read in my life, it has ignited a bright light of faith inside my spirit that I will take with me forever no matter what.  Everyone of us has its own story, our life history and the author in this book explains how to liberate yourself from our own virtual self imposed limits to a new level of vision that inspires you to take action in your life to transform yourself from the inside out and to realize that the whole universe is interconnected with love and purpose.  I am very grateful I read this book, because of it.... I will no longer be ever the same, ever... this is a gem I will keep in my heart forever.  I give it 5 stars of love!

This is a wonderful book and really answers a lot of questions about the soul.  I would highly recommend this book to everyone because it doesn't matter what religion you practice, the soul is the soul and I think understanding how all the pieces in this wonderful puzzle fit together will help every person.  I cannot say enough good things about this book and I like all the others she has compiled and written too, the Gaia Effect, the Human Akash...just wonderful!  I can hardly wait to see what she does next because I know it will be just what I need.
Thanks

The O Manuscript is more than a book.  It is a soul-fullfilling companion that is a must read for anyone who is yearning for profound spiritual insight and truth.  The information in this book is invaluable and you will want to read it more than once.  Each of the three books within this book speaks directly to ones soul.  What is equally incredible is the simple manner in which some very powerful teachings and metaphysical truths are offered to the reader.  There is no one that would not benefit from reading these stories.  My only warning to the reader is that you will not want to put the book down; it is compelling, beautifully written, clear and thought provoking.

I loved this book so much and couldn't put it down.  Taking the time to read everything word for word, complete some of the questions and journal prompts and do some real deep reflection and soul searching is a true gift you can give to yourself.  Julie is absolutely awesome and it's clear she's gone through such an incredible process to get to the point of radical self-love and acceptance that so many of us are striving for.  I actually found myself quoting so much of the wisdom from this book since reading it and I want to grab a copy for every girlfriend, sister, cousin, aunt etc. in my life. Take the time to read this book today!  You won't regret it.

I loved reading this book so much. It is not only very inspirational but life changing as well. Every chapter is so detailed with amazing help that is very easy to follow to help you moved on and enjoy life to the fullest better either by yourself, friends or families.

I admit I am a happy person. When I am stress, I find something that I loved and relieved any stress that I felt. Life is too short to deal with negativity. I rather smile than frown. My husband even told me that he loves my perspective in life. Grew up being poor, you need to enjoy life to the fullest.

This book is so amazing. it is perfect for everybody to read, relax and reflect on their lives. You will learned a lot while reading this book. It is an eye opening book that helps you with situation especially if you are unhappy or want a change in your life. This book is beyond inspirational. You will take a deep breath, pause and you will feel different after you read this book.

From the first few paragraphs, I could see that this book was going to be pivotal in my walk with the Lord and healing thats on the horizon. Each chapter brought the challenge of self-reflection and the opportunity to sit with Jesus and hear Him speak about the subject of that chapter. Refreshing. Honest. Uninhibited. Soulful. Thats how I describe this amazing book and this amazing author. So blessed to be part of the community of reading this together. Its definitely one I will refer back to and reread multiple times.

This is one of the best books I have ever read, bar none, and I have read enthusiastically for nearly 80 years.  It is thoughtful, thought-provoking and at the same time, exciting and thrilling.  It speaks to the heart and soul, and leaves the reader, finally, with a deep sense of peace.  The author well understood the characters of those he was writing about, and they come gloriously alive in these pages.  When I finished it the first time. I couldn't let it go, but started immediately to read it again even more carefully and thoroughly.

I won this book at a Nanowrimo kick off party raffle a couple of years ago, and just got round to reading it yesterday, finishing it today.  I must say, I read it at the perfect time in my life.  This collection of poems has touched me at my core, and is both life propelling and life changing.  I believe this will be one of those books that will stay with me forever.  Incredibly gorgeous, insightful, soulful, empowering, peaceful, warm, real - I could go on for quite some time.  I felt I knew each author by the time I turned the last page, and my only criticism isn't a true criticism at all: I want to read what they've written since!

This book is enjoyable, easy to read and thought provoking.  It inspires me each time I reread it. It reminds me of all I have and all I am grateful for. The author has a lot of eye opening thoughts that he put on paper of which I couldn't have thought of in a million years. Looking forward to more books.

This little book took me to a place so asounding I was breathless through the whole read, and so, I read it twice more. Each time, I found Ramtha gave me insights and thoughts to ponder as no other spirituality books has ever done.  Quite frankly, I felt so connected to the teachings that it was overwhelming.  This book exercises the mind, the heart and soul and everything unseen that is only felt.  I whole heartedly recommend reading all of Ramtha.

Everyone should read this book, no matter what their religious belief is. It's not about religion, it's about life and death and it presents an incredibly inspiring theory about life after life. The fact that the story is based on a real historical event such 9/11, allows this book to take the reader through such an emotional journey that feels shockingly real. It makes you think, it makes you change the way you look at life and death and makes you re think about the time we have to spend in this world. Quite possibly, the best book I've ever read.

I am 2/3 of the way through this book and I have learned so much about how the soul operates, love, forgiveness, interacting with others on a soul level, and so so so much more. I would have to say that it in the three years since I've been on a serious spiritual journey, this is probably the best  and most useful book I have read.  If you're on the fence about buying this book, get off the fence and buy it. I read a little every morning and have stars, underlines, highlights and comments all over it which I will re-read when I'm done. I love and forgive you! <3
