  • Across the Phantom Divide
    • Rated 5 stars

    I just loved reading Across the Phantom Divide. For all people, traveling a path to peace, this book gives us the ability to actually touch it's presence within us and in the universe surrounding us. I loved the characters and the story line. I felt very connected to the narrator Jay Sarte as he took me on a journey through the book and along his path of inner awakening. He took me on a search to find his dear friend Joe Randolph, who created a model related to the human brain and was then found missing along with the model; he is a character that filled me with hope and opened further understanding within me the importance of our effort to truly understand our selves as human beings in order to further evolve and create a peaceful world. The story line contained alot of messages related to spirituality, inner growth, our connectedness to each other and to the complexities of our society. There was so much originality contained within the book that it kept me newly interested with each page eager to find out where the next sentence would take me. Anyone interested in the exploration of energy and heightened consciousness will enjoy this book.

    Persepolis takes you into the world of a young girl growing up in Iran. It is in graphic form, but it doesn't fail to reach you with it's deep and educating messages. It is a heartfelt and real memoir.

  • The Prophet

    by Kahlil Gibran
    • Rated 0 stars

    This book has words of wisdom we can all benefit from and enjoy the beauty in which Kahlil Gibran writes. He takes subjects like beaty, love, children, and through poetic words tells us what those things mean to him.

  • One Hundred Years of Solitude
    • Rated 0 stars

    This is an amazing and complex book. It takes alot of awareness and concentration, but I was changed from reading it. It also will change the way I approach reading books. It was that challenging.
