Most Touching & Informative Book Ever. - By: V. cocks, 20 Apr 2008
I am 19 years old & borrowed this book from my mother after she had advised me it was amazing...
It has taken me three days to finish it, impossible to put down, I have been glued to it ever since my mother handed me it.
This book is an inspiration to all, Mia Dolan is certainly gifted & this book really gives hope to people who feel the weight of lifes struggles.
I have learnt a lot from this book about clayrevoyence & will continue to read & research into it now. My outlook on the afterlife & all things related has immensely took a turning for the better.
Would reccomend for everyone to read.

Produced some interesting discussion - By: MaryAnne, 26 Sep 2007
This was a fascinating insight into how Mia Dolan discovered & nurtured her psychic gift, aided by her spirit guide, Eric.
An interesting book, I liked the balance of hearing about Mia's life & the development of her Gift. I didn't feel that her hard life was the reason for her psychic powers, more that you either have it or you don't - or maybe everyone has it but doesn't know how to use it.......
I went through a phase when I was fascinated by reincarnation & this covers similar ground.
I must admit that I don't like the idea that you keep coming back into harder & harder lives, learning & 'growing' each time. I'm quite happy with my life, I certainly don't want to come back as an abused womanin Afghanistan or whatever.

I'd like to have heard more about her gift & using it for police work orin similar useful situations.
I felt for her over the raw deal she got trying to get remuneration from the newspapers. Obviously her life has been hard financially as well asin other ways & I'm probably being unfair, but I wanted the gift to be usedin more altruistic ways than just telling people whether their partner was bad news. I felt that if it was a 'Gift' then it should be shared, not just used.

Four stars because this is not brilliantly written, but worth a read none the less.
Poor to say the least - By: SJSmith, 24 Sep 2007
This was truly awful! I really enjoy misery memoirs, I find them fascinating but this was the worst one so far! The writing was disjointed & unbelievable. One second we having a dodgy relationship & the next there's dogs flying through the air. No way!

The story of her gift takes second fiddle to her talking about her life. Which was dreadful but not fully discussed. The book is jumpy & expects the reader to believe too much. I do believein tarot cards but I don't believein how she expressed it. For example when she asks her mother to scan her son - hmmm. Suddenly she has this wonderful gift that she never knew about before & knew how to used it? Yes, well.

I feel Mia Dolan has tried to capture too many audiences with this book & may not succeedin pleasing any.
