I really like books about self-love and discovering yourself. I like that you say that this has some romance in it but it isn't really a romance. I also like the inclusiveness of all religions (spirituality) that you describe. Great review! I think that I'll enjoy the sample.

To be able to forgive one's self for past mistakes, and to learn to accept and even love one's self are concepts that perhaps resonate with us all. This book sounds both intriguing, emotional, and realistic.

Heidi.... I Love how this actor connect to the reader. At a point i had to put my self in the characters shoes. Real life situations can sometimes whoop you off the feet completely but you do need other people in life to rekindle your spirit and know your life worth. I rate this book four of four.

I love reading interesting books like this. The main character here, Anna finds me interest. Also, i think, I like to explore more of its thrilling adventures in life. :oops: :oops:

The book seems to have a very good content. The review made me want to know how Anna turned out to be in the end. Great review. ^^

This sounds like an interesting book. I'm curious to see how the author incorporates different religions in the book. I also like the fact that it's very human and the protagonist is going through issues normal people go through. Great review by the way!
