I loved this book, and was deeply effected by it. From my perspective Laura Lynne Jackson seems to be such a caring and genuine person, and lacks the ego that a lot of celebrity psychics seem to have. I love the work that she does with families. I like that she teaches you how to do this work for yourself. So many people slam psychics and mediums to say that are just trying to make money off desperate people - but most of those I know who practice that I know in person or have read will tell you - that anyone can do this if they are open to it. In this book Laura Lynne Jackson gives examples but also tells you how to do it for yourself. I think it was well written and will definitely re-read in the future.
Signs is a very well written book by psychic Laura Lynne Jackson. She guides us into understanding the signs we are exposed to from those that have passed.
Great book!
This was interesting and I did read it all the way through. It's a very encouraging book for people who are grieving a lost loved one. It provides the reader with ways to invite signs that reveal the loved one's presence. I am interested in signs and metaphysics in general. This was an easy read, and enjoyed it, however, I did not feel that I learned anything new.
Great book! This is a book that everyone should read. We all deal with death and this book might make you open up your eyes(and senses) to the world of coincidences and signs from our loved ones. I am so glad that I read this.
Thank you to NetGalley, the publisher and author for this ARC.
Signs promises to be helpful to and comforting to people who've lost a loved one or who would like to be more in touch with the world around them.
I was really looking forward to this book, and was quickly disappointed. I was hopeful that it would be a more comprehensive guide to signs, how they work, and different ways they present themselves in a person's life. This instead was a collections of stories. It felt more of a version of "Chicken Soup for the Soul Signs Edition". I feel the author missed a great opportunity to make this into a unique niche that is much needed and sought after.
Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for ARC in exchange for an honest review.
This book had an 'ah-ha' feel. It explained many of those unexplainable coincidences and 'dejavu' moments. I loved the vignettes of loved one passed. There were many examples. While I loved the author's insights, but would have preferred more of the her guidance in 'how-to'. Thank you!
The first half of the book felt a bit tedious at first - story after story about how the author acted as a medium, and the signs a person received from a departed loved one. I was expecting something more broad, and not a series of vignettes. That being said, I was highly skeptical at first, and the overwhelming number and power of the stories included made me believe in her message. This was difficult to read in some ways, the stories are very emotionally charged, but the overall tone and message of the book is uplifting.
This was really interesting! I am not someone who usually looks for signs in the universe from those that have passed away, but this book has me stopping and looking for signs that they are with me. I enjoyed this book tremendously!
An unusual book about looking for signs in the universe. An enlightening, fun read.
Many thanks to NetGalley, the author, and the publisher for my ARC. All opinions are my own.
After my own father passed away, I was comforted by seeing a certain something regularly. My family felt the same and we all believed it to be a sign from him. Every now and then I feel this same type of occurrence. This led me to want to pick up the book Signs and I was not disappointed. The author Laura, never condescends or acts like this concept is only for her but instead encourages all to believe we are still loved even after they are no longer with us here. I highly recommend this book!
This is a beautiful book for anyone who wants to open themselves up to the signs of the universe. I especially liked the re-energizing practice in the end of the book. I enjoyed the personal stories from ordinary people.
I would like to thank netgalley and the publisher for providing me with a copy free of charge. This is my honest and unbiased opinion of it.
As someone who is already open to receiving signs from The Universe, I wasn't sure I'd get much from this book but was interested anyway. I'm so glad I chose it because it opened my heart and mind even further! I found it a bit repetitive, though I'm sure that's intentional to drive the point home. The tone of the book is overwhelmingly positive and encouraging. Jackson uses straightforward language to best explain her beliefs and give guidance. She shows the ready how to not only remain open to signs from The Other Side, but to live a life that is based in love, not fear.
A compelling and fascinating book. If you've ever experienced odd coincidences and other unexplainable phenomena that seem to "speak" to you, you'll find this book very affirming, This is the first book I've read that connects these phenomena with physics and is compatible with the Christian faith.
Much of the book is made up of fascinating stories of people who have received "signs" from loved ones who have passed away. The author's own thoughts on how all this works is woven amongst these stories. I was impressed that the author shows how ordinary people - all of us - can tune into these signs, rather than simply touting herself as having some sort of unique ability.
My only complaint with the book is that I'd rather have read more of the author's own thoughts and theories, instead of so many stories. The material at the end of the book - about how we can re-energize - was equally fascinating, but it felt like a totally separate book. I hope this author will write this material as a subsequent book!
I’ve read a couple of books on signs before, usually more of a list of signs you might see or very simple discussions on them. This book was a pleasant surprise as it discussed in-depth, along with providing the author’s own clients’ stories, not only what types of signs to look for and how, but also who/what might be sending them and why, and even how to request specific signs from loved ones or spirit guides, which I had never heard of being able to do. Some of the personal stories were so touching and heartwarming they threatened a couple of tears. There was one in particular that happened to resonate with my exact life circumstances at the moment and opened my eyes a bit. You also get brief chapters on energy and karma, and the entire book gives you a lesson on being positive and not allowing yourself to go into the dark side. Whether you’re already a believer in signs or not, this book is a great read for anyone to open your eyes and get a better view of your life and why things happen as they do. I’m glad I ran into this book, and from her teaching I know there may even have been a reason for finding it when I did, and will definitely be looking into more of her work.
I received a free copy of this book from NetGalley and am voluntarily giving my honest review.
This is a fascinating book that's very different in content from Ms. Jackson's first bestseller. I loved both of her books. "Signs" includes a depiction of Ms. Jackson's personal journey and contains a great amount of practical advice for readers who wish to tap into their own signs. The author also includes her powerful encounters with her clients, groups, etc. "Signs" is an outstanding, truly original book that I highly recommend.
