If you are into Elves, Hobgoblins, Faeries, and more, then this book is perfect for you. Especially if you desire to know more about those creatures, or how you can try to protect yourself when they are near, or how you should treat them.

I found the information in this book, to be, in my opinion thorough. The lore of the creatures discussed in this book was fascinating. It's in general, a very good book.

A Field Guide to Demons, Fairies, Fallen Angels and Other Subversive Spirits by Carol K. Mack
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I found this book to be interesting. The information contained in this book was stimulating. I personally found slight humor in one part of the book. There is reference to a creature known as a Bunyip in this book, and for anyone who is a fan of the TV show "Charmed", you will remember that there is a Bunyip entry in the Halliwell's Book Of Shadows, it's this part that I found slightly funny, simply because what was supposedly a made up magical creature, might really be real.

However, if demons, fallen angels, faires, and other such magical creatures interest you, then this book is for you. If anyone has an interest in these things, then I recommend you read this book.

Life on the Other Side: A Psychic's Tour of the Afterlife by Sylvia Browne
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I found this book to be very interesting. It was informative & kept my attention the whole time. I will say that the author's view on what Heaven is like, differs from what I was taught in Sunday School, but then again, my Sunday School teacher wasn't psychic. However, I did find Sylvia's description of Heaven to be fascinating.

Everyday Tarot Magic: Meditation & Spells by Dorothy Morrison
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is a great book. The information on Tarot in it is very good and informative. The magical spells in the book are simple, easy to understand instructions; and best of all, while the spells all require the use of a tarot card (either burning, folding, writing on, or otherwise destroying your cards), a photocopy of your tarot cards can be used for each spell. In fact it's recommended by the author.

If you are into tarot and magic, this is most definitely the book for you. I personally continue to refer to this book, to this day. And I have used some of the spells in the book, and have found success with them.

A Gallery Of Ghostly Possessions

New Book Brings Together Tales of Haunted, Cursed and Possessed Items

Can an object be haunted?

With so much media attention given to haunted houses and possessed people these days, ghosts are no longer a taboo topic. Authors Christopher Balzano and Tim Weisberg have compiled a collection of true ghost stories with one catch. All of them revolve around the unexplained happening to regular, every-day items that are probably collecting dust on your shelf. More than a ghost-hunting book or a compilation of regional spooky stories, Haunted Objects: Stories of Ghosts on Your Shelf (Krause, July 2012, $15.99) asks readers to explore people's real experiences with haunted, cursed or possessed items while attempting to forget they have one just like it somewhere in their top drawer or attic. Ghost stories don't just happen on Halloween, and these stories prove you don't need a drafty old house or a stormy night to experience spirits.

Balzano and Weisberg try to answer the question from all angles, calling upon urban legend and classic curses while retelling the stories of everyday people who opened their home to something that refused to leave. Tales include those of haunted toys, such as the famous Robert the Doll and the murderous Annabelle; a mysterious birth certificate that enrages its dead owner; and a cursed belt that may be the reason for more than 300 years of death and crime in Southeastern Massachusetts.

Do the spirits of two little girls still play with dresses in the room where they died? Did James Dean and Franz Ferdinand both leave behind cursed cars? Is there more behind a set of Haitian masks than meets the eye? Does a dead grandfather share his favorite metal with his recently deceased grandson? The answers are simple if you can boil it all down to one question: can an object be haunted?

Once you read this book, you'll know the answer and never look at a yard sale, flea market or antique store the same way again.

BOOK REVIEW: Activate Joy by AlixSandra Parness, DD.

Activate Joy: Live Your Life Beyond Limitations by Alixsandra Parness
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I found the book Activate Joy to be filled with interesting thoughts, beliefs, and ideas.


I will admit, that there were some parts that I personally did not agree with; but over all, I found this work by AlixSandra Parness, DD. to be a very good read.


There were many parts of the book that I found insightful. This book has given me a lot to think about; and made me see that there were certain areas in my life that could benefit from the information given in Activate Joy.


One of more interesting, and what I believe personally to be one of the most useful parts in the book, was the Joy Ruler. I will be using this tool often in my life.
