Book Review

book.jpg

 

Have any of you heard of M.J. Rose?  Actually, she's quite a success story.  She wrote her first novel as an eBook online.  Apparently, it did so well selling online all of a sudden she had an agent, a publisher and well......the rest is history.  Although I've always admired her tenacity and success, I've never read her books.  She writes erotica.  Hey, I'm far from a prude and have nothing against erotica.  I just don't read it.

 

But recently I heard her in an interview online about her latest release.  She wrote a fiction book with the theme of reincarnation.  Now.....that's right up MY alley.  So I pre-ordered from Amazon and finished it last week.

 

She spent nine years doing the research for it so most of what she writes in the novel is based on case studies, etc.  It reminded me a bit of The DaVinci Code or The Amber Room by Steve Berry.  It's fast-paced reading and I guess would go under the genre of thriller. 

 

The jacket flap says, "A bomb in Rome. A flash of bluish-white light, and photojounalist Josh Ryder's world exploded.  From that instant nothing would ever be the same."

 

I thought the novel was very well written and much of which she relates I've read over the years in non-fiction books on reincarnation.  She even gives a suggested reading list at the back of the book. 

 

I won't say it's the most incredible book I've ever read, but it's good.  But then, I'm drawn toward anything to do with reincarnation.  Plus, I'm a Pisces and lean toward psychic ability and beliefs.  And yes....I strongly feel I've been here before.  13 times to be exact.  At least a highly regarded psychic once told me that.  And oh yes.....some of you that I've met in person.....we've crossed paths before.  I'm aware of it.  You probably just don't remember.  Which is the way it's supposed to be for most of us when we come back.

 

So if you enjoy this topic and you're looking for a decent thriller to read, I can recommend this one.  And if you read it, come back and let me know what you thought.....in this lifetime, that is.

 

See you next time.......

How fascinating that she first published on line, so to speak...It gives one hope, doesn't it? I don't read a whole lot anymore Terri, but if I did, because of YOUR recomendation, I might just read this book...
And I know you will be leaving very soon for your beloved Paris....Take lots of pictures, my dear, PLEASE!

Voltaire said something like ... It's just as amazing to have been born at all than to be born more than once.

I have had some past life regressions that felt very real on an emotional level, but I'm never quite sure if they are memories or me tapping into the memory of my gene pool.
